This pill has made me very anxious and also a bit snappy. It has been good for stopping periods as i take back to back so i dont bleed (periods are painfull and heavy otherwise) .. but expeirence some breakthrough bleeding. Thrush has been the biggest problem as i cant seem to get rid of it and im sure that the pill is the problem!! Also my eyes have become dryer and ive become more sweaty.

Moved to Brevinor to try and prevent breakthrough bleeding on another pill, not successful in the first three months. Tried to renew prescription but blood pressure just too high. Switched to mini-pill.

I was put on this pill after initially trying and reacting horribly to Rigevidon. My main reason for switching was the emotional toll Rigevidon was taking on me, but I felt completely back to normal after going on Brevinor and didn't notice any particularly adverse emotional side effects. I did have a fair amount of spotting during the first couple of months on Brevinor, but it eventually settled down and my periods become quite regular. My main reason for getting on the pill was awful period cramps, and so far Brevinor has been mostly successful at keeping these at bay. There have been a couple of times it didn't quite work, but it was still way better than my periods when off the pill. I also had a fair amount of acne during the first three months, but this cleared up around the six month mark and my skin has been amazing after that.
