More agitated for the first month. Very tender breasts and they grew a lot but have gone back down a bit since. Periods are heavy but only for 2 days then finish on the 4th day which is much shorter than before. Cramps are very bad on those 2 days tho. My contacts get sooo dry but after 4 months the other side effects calmed a lot.

This is the best pill I’ve been on (aside from Dianette) and it doesn’t adversely affect my mood as much as other pills I’ve been on.

Was fine at the start when taking this pill but eventually I lost my sex drive completely, had vaginal dryness, and a loss of appetite including nausea most of the time. However, my skin was still good, and my periods were lighter/the same while taking it.
