Hana contains desogestrel and is a type of mini pill (progestogen-only pill). It is really safe for nearly every woman, but like all desogestrel pills, some of us have issues with breakthrough bleeding which can be unpredictable as there is no oestrogen in the mini pill to help with cycle control. You can now buy Hana from a pharmacy without needing a prescription! Simply click ‘Buy Hana pill’ below and follow the mini-pill form where you’ll be asked for some medical details to check if it's safe for you.

I have been on Hana for the past 10 months. It started with a massive breakthrough bleed, and then as the months have gone on, my periods have become more irregular, later and lighter. This month my period has stopped altogether. Me and my partner use Hana, condoms and the pull out method as I really don't want to get pregnant. Having been on this pill, I've had a lower sex drive and lower mood.

I was apprehensive about taking a progesterone only pill as I have friends who didn't get on with it but I have been very pleasantly surprised. I'm on my 4th pack and have had 1 period in that time. The only notable side effect is vaginal dryness. I still get wet during foreplay/ sex but definitely not as much.

I’ve had constant bleeding with it apart from that it’s been great after nearly everything else disagreeing with me spoke to a lowdown Gp who was amazing she has given me an action plan with what I should do going forward and different options to try etc. Giving that ago for the next 6 weeks to see if there is any difference with the bleeding.

I had really terrible bloating with Hana unfortunately. My periods were also irregular. Maybe would of been ok if I stayed on it longer than 2 months but found the bloating a bit too much for me.

I had extremely painful periods to the point where I was missing work every month. After trying and failing to get help from my GP, I bought some Hana over the counter in an act of desperation. It's helped immensely with my pain (not gone away, but doesn't debilitate me anymore) and has had the unexpected side affect of making me calmer in general, presumably due to this pill balancing out my hormones. I don't get depressed or hysterical around my period anymore, and feel more in control of my emotions. Glad I tried it.
