This definitely helped me with my PMS symptoms. No significant changes to my weight. I had more sensitive skin / allergic reactions during my time on it but not necessarily due to the pill. My mood was pretty similar to when I was off the pill.

After trying multiple other contraceptions like the implant and other combined pills I’ve found this one gives me the best results with the least side effects. The only side effects I have really noticed is period like cramps and occasional mood swings before my period. I take the pill for 3 months at a time then stop for 7 days as advised by my doctor and this works fine for me. The bleeding does normally break its way through eventually. This pill hasn’t made me feel as abnormally anxious or have as many mood swings as other combined pills.

Had no problems whilst taking this for a couple of months and then decided to take it back to back as wanted to stop bleeding and reduce cramps but it came with very irregular spotting and bleeding so i decided to take it regularly 21/7 which stopped the spotting and irregular bleeding. Unfortuneatly this pill gave me vaginal dryness which lead to bleeding and pain during sex and experiencing abnormal vaginal discharge. I ended up with endless appointments to GUM and GP for examinations and nothing found apart from cervical ectropian. I decided to come off this to see if my symptoms would improve which they did after a couple of months and my sex drive improved. This helped with my relationship.
