Absolutely would not recommend. I'm 17 and started taking this contraception for period control as advised by my doctor, first week in everything was fine, I have quite a bit of abdominal cramping but I was assured it was normal. Second week in I have had nonstop panic attack and related symptoms, my mood had been the lowest ever and I just felt awful. Third and fourth week (current) I've been bleeding, lightly, for a total of 14 days now and it's showing no signs of stopping, my anxiety is causing me huge distress and I can't wait to get off it.
Very negative mood

Id had a bad past experience with contraceptive pills with negative mood changes which for me is a big thing, I hate it. Gedarel was the best by far. My mood stayed as I usually should be which was my main thing I wanted. However gedarel 20/150 made me feel extremely nauseous every day, I went completely off coffee which is so sad, and had periods every two weeks for the 5 months I took it. I also completely lost my sex drive. I have now recently changed to Gedarel 30/150 as prescribed in hopes that it will stop the extra periods and nausea. Yet to find out!

Being as this is my third ‘trial’ pill since they completely stopped my old pill this has been the closest substitute. Originally was put on the pill to reduce severe period pains and a heavy flow.
