<human>: Hi, I have been on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo for several years and recently switched insurance companies. It used to be free but now its going to cost me over $100 per month.  Is there anything similar to this on the market? I have had absolutely no side effects from the Lo and am very concerned about switching over to a new brand or different type of pill. Any information will be much appreciated. Thank you and have a good day. Melissa
