I started taking this pill when I was 20 first. I had no issues with it for a years when I started to have migraines and realised that it's because of the pill so I stopped. Tried various pills and methods after it which did not work out for me so I came back to Mercilon 6 months ago by the age of 27. Unfortunately this time I had bad side effects from the start. First month I bled for 3 weeks pretty heavy, then my periods became lighter, however my sex drive is very low, vagina very dry and lost half of my hair... I am thinking to switch to a non hormonal method now...

I went on mericon after having a bad reaction to LEVEST which caused hallucination, sickness and muscle weakness. I was told mericon was a lower dosage and that I shouldn't have side effects. This pill gave me serve depression and anxiety , panic attacks and suicidle thoughts which have never ever crossed my mind before taking this pill. I became incredibly dizzy, lack of concentration, sickness and tiredness and loss of all sex drive and self confidence. eventually I came off the pill - best decision I ever made.
