Been on this pill for the last 14 months after the doctor changed it due to supply issues with my previous pill. Experienced many changes with my body gradually over this time which I didn’t think to associate with my contraception until looking at this website and it all clicked into place. Periods have been so regular and manageable starting almost to the same hour every month but that’s a small reward to gain from the negatives: horrible acne on my chin, near enough monthly thrush, little/no desire to have sex and weight gain (potentially more than likely due to lockdown lifestyle changes but you never know). Currently investigating what contraception I want to try next and looking towards the IUD instead of the pill and I’m so grateful to have came across this website and gain the insight into this.

I had trouble with pills in the past and tried a few before settling on gedarel. I've now been taking it for about five years and I've had absolutely no problems with it - it really works for me. One of the main reasons I've stuck with this one is that it's completely cleared up my skin and as far as I'm aware has no impact on my mood or sex drive. I found that other pills I've tried did. I had been on this pill for a while so I decided to take an 8 month break to see if anything changed, it didn't seem to (apart from all my spots came back) so I went back on it. I do have a tendency to get UTIs but I'm not sure that is anything to do with this pill.
