I went on the pill to not get pregnant, and in that way it has worked. However i have had suspicions since the beginning that it wasn't right for me and 5 years later I am looking to change. I feel bloated really often, my moods are lower and I was given anti depressants while on this pill, only starting to realise it might be related. Gained weight. Recently been having regular UTIs and pain after sex, my GP couldn't figure it out but says it might be hormonal.

I was originally on depo for 3 years came off as I was on this for quite a long time (recommended 2 years only) I was getting bad acne from the jab so I was put on this pill. Took my body to adjust awhile my acne cleared up super quick, had sore boobs and headaches, but these disappeared 3 months. HOWEVER this pill kept giving me chronic UTIs I was in so much pain where i could not walk. I didn't think it was the pill but it was I looked in the symptom leaflet and 1 in 10 get urine infections. I changed pill and they have gone away.

I would say Cimizt was one of the best pills I’ve used personally because I’d struggled a lot with nausea on other pills. However it did make me gain quite a bit of weight which could’ve also been down to the fact I was in a new relationship. But I think I just looked more bloated whilst on this pill compared to off. Every pill I have used has reduced my sex drive so this was another reason I came off it as I wanted to see whether that would improve. It definitely did but not as much as I’d expected.
