Overall, Haven’t noticed any changes to mood, it’s definitely made me gain a little bit of weight. However, My period i had when coming off the pill was in one word…. Excruciating. I’ve never had bad period cramps but with this pill my period came out in massive blood clots and it was very very painful.

At first it's was good for the first 8/10 months of using this pill. After the first year I noticed a dramatic difference in my mood and down there being sore quite often. Had cystitis twice and thrush was a pain to get rid of. Currently still taking it but I want to stop using this as it's done me no favours.

I was on this pill for 11 years with no problems at all, cleared my skin up a treat! (Only had facial acne before at 15 yrs old). I swore by it. Then I started getting aura migraines & double vision, which have stopped since changing to desogestrol 3 years ago. However, I now have face, chest, back & arm acne at the age of 30...
