I didn’t notice many side effects whilst using the pill - occasional hormonal spots on my face mid-cycle and period-like cramping whilst settling in to its use. However, the hormone headache on the pill-free week is like nothing I’ve ever experienced before. No pain killers took it away and I spent 2 days with a hot water bottle across my head. I have since stopped taking the pill but would probably skip my period if I was to continue taking gedarel!
