I was on Ortho-Cyclen 28's and now Im on Ortho Tri-Cyclen, my Dr. switched me. Since birth control pills prevent pregnancy, could the switch make me more likely to become pregnant? Also, could the new kind of pills be the cause of my breast tenderness? Thank you!

Switching BC pills, shouldn't affect their effectiveness.
Breast tenderness can be a side affect of your pills, if you still have concerns, get an OC pregnancy test. This test isn't always as accurate as blood work. I would advise talking your concerns over with your doc.

If the percentage of acuracy to not get pregnant on those B.C pills are 98%, then your chance of getting pregnant will be 2%. Yes it could very well be the pills causing tenderness!
