I didn’t mind this pill and would have kept using it if it was still being manufactured. My spots were much worse at first but got better after 6 months or so and it completely eradicated my back acne. I did have spotting in between periods sometimes, and for a period of about 8 months had spotting every time after sex. I did gain about a stone of weight on this pill after struggling to put on weight on my previous pill (ovranette) which was the biggest downside. My boobs also grew probably a cup size. Almost complete loss of sex drive though, but I generally didn’t have an issue with mood on this one.

Being on the pill was one of the most negative experiences I have ever had. I was such a happy outgoing positive person. When on the pill I turned into a different person. I would scream and shout. Totally irrational in any decision making and cry all the time. It was horrible. It damaged relationships at the time.
