Tri Previfem is a combination oral contraceptive pill (cOCP, birth control medication, birth control pills). It prevents pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation), and thickening the cervical mucus, blocking sperm from getting into the uterus and getting to the egg. Read More
It’s easy to use Tri Previfem. The most important thing to remember is to take your pill at the same time every day, and no more than 24 hours apart. For 21 days in a row, you’ll take the “active” white pill. For the next 7 days in a row, you’ll take the light green “inactive” pill. This helps you stay in the habit of taking a daily pill. Your withdrawal bleed will occur during the week you’re taking your inactive pills, usually within about two to three days of inactive pills.

Tri Previfem birth control pills have two main active ingredients: Norgestimate 0.18/0.215/0.25 mg (progesterone) and Ethinyl Estradiol 0.035 mg (estrogen).
Most people who take Tri Previfem experience no side effects. If side effects occur, they are usually mild.
Some minor side effects are: headaches, nausea, breast tenderness, fatigue, and decreased sex drive. Many experience positive side effects such as: reduced acne, fewer mood swings, and lighter, easier, and less painful periods!
While very unlikely, serious side effects can occur while taking Tri Previfem, including blood clots. Blood clots can travel throughout the bloodstream and block blood flow to different parts of the body. This can cause potentially life-threatening issues like deep vein thrombosis, heart attack, or stroke.
The good news is that the risk of serious Tri Previfem side effects is extremely low. Our expert birth control doctors and Pandia Health Care Advisors can answer any questions and concerns about your birth control options.

There is no direct link between Tri Previfem and weight gain. Some women experience changes in their appetite that may lead to weight gain while taking Tri Previfem. Others may find that their bodies retain more fluid while taking Tri Previfem, even though they actually don’t gain any body fat.
One of our Patient Care Advisors or licensed physicians will always review the medications and supplements you’re currently taking before prescribing Tri Previfem. Certain drugs (recreational, over-the-counter, or prescription) can interact with Tri Previfem and make it less effective at preventing pregnancy. Drugs that may interact with Tri Previfem include HIV drugs, anti-seizure drugs, antibiotics, and even herbal supplements like St. John’s wort.
Women who have high blood pressure or take medications to control blood pressure should not take Tri Previfem. Our Pandia Health medical team recommends other options including progestin-only pill (POPs), IUDs with hormone (Mirena, Liletta, Kyleena, Skyla), copper IUDs, implants (nexplanon), the birth control shot (depo-provera), or condoms and spermicide.
You shouldn’t smoke anyway, but especially not if you take estrogen containing birth control pills like Tri Previfem. Smoking increases the risk of serious side effects like blood clots, especially in women who are older than 35.
Don’t take Tri Previfem if you’re allergic to any of its ingredients. Signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction to Tri Previfem are rare and usually very mild and may include itching, hives, or dizziness. Serious allergic reactions to Tri Previfem can occur in very rare cases. Stop taking Tri Previfem and call 911 immediately if you experience swelling in the lips, mouth, or tongue, or if you have a hard time breathing.
Tri Previfem isn’t for everyone. Women with a history of certain medical conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease, liver cancer, or severe migraines should not take Tri Previfem. Our Pandia Health Care Advisors are standing by to help you figure out the best birth control method given your health history.
It’s easy to get Tri Previfem at just about any pharmacy near you with a doctor’s prescription. Concerned about your privacy? Our doctor-founded, doctor-led team at Pandia Health is happy to connect you with a licensed physician who can help you get Tri Previfem or any other birth control you need, discreetly and conveniently.

It’s not true that Tri Previfem causes infertility. If you’re taking Tri Previfem and want to have a baby, talk to your doctor and then stop taking the medication. Normal fertility should return within one or two menstrual cycles after your last pill. Dr. Yen explains more about birth control and infertility in this video. Watch to learn more!
