Gave me suicidal thoughts, I was so miserable and upset within 2 days of starting the pill and cried my eyes out in work when someone dropped ice on the floor. Obviously everyone reacts differently but this pill was the worst thing ever for me, I had to come off it after less than 10 days because I was so so miserable.

I’ve been on Levest for 8/9 months now and I haven’t experienced many negative symptoms. I did note that my with my periods i experience spotting, and that’s because I take the pills back to back so I don’t bleed for a month and that isn’t a problem. It’s done wonders for me in my opinion, my periods are lighter however the cramps are a bit worse than before, and I rarely get acne. I did mention that I have gained weight but that’s simply due to cravings, bad habits/choices and not exercising, I don’t think it was a direct cause from the pill.

Started taking this pill on and off this year with dizziness, migraines and nausea daily for the 1st beginning week on it, afterwards all negative symptoms dissapeared. I have now been on this pill for 5 months and have noticed by breasts increasing a lot in size and being very tender which is NOT ideal when you already struggle with a large bust. To make matters worse my mental health slowly started to decrease more and more. I had frequent extreme mood changes, going from happy to crippling anxiety within minutes. Suicidal thoughts became more and more intense accompanied with very low moods of depression or increased irrational fears and worries. Energy and motivation completely dissapeared, almost every day felt like a battle to get out of bed and do something somewhat productive, with the bare minimum tasks feeling like the hardest thing in the world to do. I will be finishing this month and coming off it for a good while before trying different brands (if I ever feel like gambling with my mental health like that again...)
