Overall I’m very pleased with Drovelis. No weight changes or mood swings. Periods are regular and not painful at all.

Overall a very positive experience. My main issue is loss of sex drive but every time I’ve attempted to change, the others haven’t agreed with me and I’ve reverted back to Rigevidon.
