This was the 1st contraception I ever tried and I went on this pill for 2 reasons: The 1st was for cramps and the 2nd was for a contraception which I used alongside condoms. When I started this pill I was on my period/experienced spotting for 140days from May (when I started the pill) to December. However, I did not experience cramps so I was happy to continue with this pill as the period was very light. After this I got my period about every 6weeks and started to get mild cramps but would reduce with paracetamol. After about 18 months of being on this pill I started to experience cramps again. My period was been dreadful. I’ve been on my period for 2weeks now with cramps and heavier bleeding than usual. I’m really tired and run down due to it all and absolutely hate it. A new doctor informed me that this was not the best pill to go on if I don’t have any underlying health problems i.e. A risk of clots. I had no other side effects on this pill so I think it is a good option if you don’t experience cramps and are looking for a contraceptive with less hormones as my friend has had a good experience on it. However it’s definitely not for me and I’m going to change asap.

I was put on this brand after my GP said my prescription was put on a generic where chemist chose what ever brand they have. I'd been on Cerelle brand for over 5 years and this brand isn't suiting me. I've only been on this brand a month but I'm experiencing stomach cramps, irregular periods. Where before I wasn't seeing any period unless I accidentally missed a tablet. I'm feeling very tired and low in my mood which has effected my sex drive. I'm having headaches also. I have researched this brand and I've read other women have experienced these side effects. I'm contacting my gp to arrange a consultation on this as I want to be back on my previous brand my body is used to taking. I'm hoping I can as I'm not feeling well taking this.

Had a really bad time on this pill. I changed pharmacies and they gave me this instead of Cerazette/Cerelle which I've taken interchangeably for the last 10 years. Demono really screwed me up – my mental health has plummeted to the point I feel depressed now and I never have before. Always been anxiety-prone but it's been through the roof. No sex drive, find it much harder to get wet (pardon the TMI), spots all over my chin almost constantly, put on weight especially around my belly, and after having 10 glorious period-free years, I've started having heavy periods in very irregular patterns (for example I will be on for a week, off for a week, then back on for a week). I finally spoke to my nurse and begged her to take me off this – I'm staring Cerelle again today and hoping this will clear up.
