Did not enjoy this pill! Tried for around 5 months, mood was poor and crying very easily or completely numb! Skin got bad at first but then was okay! Gained weight around increase by a dress size or two, felt bloated constantly and breast size increased but sore! Vaginal dryness was extreme was even sore to walk and have thrush twice in this 5 month period! Was spotting pretty much constantly and obviously unable to track periods with it being a continuous pill and they were irregular.

I got put on this pill when i had a miscarriage, i get worried from time to time about my period. I have the flo app and i’m on my period about every 2 weeks, but it’s not exactly a period it’s just very very light and lasts for longer then a period should last this only started happening when i missed a pill for a day and the next day took 2 of them so it didn’t screw the pill up in my body and it has so it worries me. I’ve also put on so much weight using the pill.

I've been on the tablet since July 2024. I first had period that lasted a month from August-September, which was followed by a 10 day break. I then came on again in Ocotber and I've been having a period now for 4 months with no sign of it stopping. Thankfully I've been told my gynecologist to come of it later this year. This tablet came as a suggestion because I had issues with the implant. It's pretty much caused me to go through the equivalent of hell. I'm constantly in pain, I cannot have sex with my boyfriend and I'm pretty much hormonal all the time. I do not recommend going on this pill.
