I took this for endometriosis, but not worth it because of facial hair growth. I had breakthrough bleeding every 4-6 months for about 4-5 days, fairly light and not too painful. My sex drive and weight were unaffected, however I got thick dark hair on my stomach, inner thighs, chest and face. This destroyed my self esteem so my mood was obviously low. After stopping the hair did not revert back which is common so I had electrolysis which took care of it. Then 2 years later I went back on this pill stupidly to try and help the endometriosis, the hair came back within 2 months. I have since stopped this pill, spent even more money on electrolysis and have had no issues after regarding that. It took about 3-5 months for my cycle to regulate after coming off birth control. I’m thinking about trying slynd as it is supposed to be anti androgenise, we’ll see.

Initially, this caused so much spotting and periods that lasted from days to a number of weeks that it meant I couldn’t have sex anyway. Having said this, I didn’t want to. My breasts were so sore. Once the periods reduced (slightly), I found myself having unbearable anxiety, mood swings, thrush and eventually had to stop taking this without much warning as symptoms were uncontrollable. It made me doubt my judgement and thoughts, I was never sure if my feelings were valid or if my moods were so unstable that it was causing me to overthink everything.

It works but it’s completely messed up my cycle. I’ve been on it for nearly 4 years and my periods sometimes come twice a month or don’t come at all, and they can come any time between day 10 and day 50 of my ‘cycle’ which causes a lot of panic and stress which makes it even worse
