I am currently on the Depo Injection but am looking to switch to the combined pill as i have been having a lot of problems with the injection. I'm not due another injection till March but does anyone know if i am able to switch now or do I have to wait?

Thank you

Hi There,

The best thing to do is go along to your local contraceptive clinic mid February, have a chat with the nurses. They can assess you, give you the pill and then advise when to start it, as the Depo lasts for up to 13 weeks.

Best Wishes

Jules
