This pill worked very well for me for many years during adolescence (brand name Yasminelle in EU) and for the year that I turned thirty (brand name Eloine in UK). I had the Kyleena coil in the years in between for reasons of convenience. I had some spotting in the beginning but it was well worth the wait due to the benefits. It has helped me with managing symptoms of endometriosis for many years, and probably also masked them during adolescence. My doctor recommended me to skip the pill breaks which was great in reducing endometriosis pains and gave me back my energy to go about life and even workouts. Unfortunately, I had to switch methods out of precaution due to having experienced a few migraines with an aura.

After having tried the copper coil, which really did not work for me due to constant spotting, I switched to the pill. Having been on the pill before, I was looking for a contraceptive that would also help with clear skin and not cause hair loss, similar to Dianette or Yasmin. I tried returning onto Yasmin but had too many side effects. Due to my age, doctors were reluctant to put me on the combined pill, but I was concerned the mini-pill would not have the same benefits as the combined pill. Eventually, a senior doctor advised I try Eloine, which is similar in benefits but still lower dose than Yasmin. I had some side effects initially and felt the effect on my mood, but after 3 months, I barely have any side effects, clear skin and no additional hair loss.
Somewhat positive mood

Really like this pill. Have tried nearly every contraceptive there is but it just feels like this one agrees with me! Like the fact i know exactly when my period will come because of the placebo pills
