    yes. switching birth control meds means changing the exact dosage of the given medication; so changing the med variety will affect your cycles. It's kind of like 300 mg of Tylenol vs 300 mg of aspirin. They're both to alleviate pain, but 300 mg of Tylenol is standard where 300 mg of aspirin could make you very sick.
