I'd take microgynon over this pill any day. I'm surprised that a lower dose pill has more unpleasant side effects. Bloating, fluid retention, extreme sickness the first couple of days followed by an insatiable appetite on day 3 plus mood swings and just feeling horrendous.

I’ve been on Millinette for 5 months now after switching from Levest and it has been a lot better! As this pill is low in oestrogen I have fewer side effects. Only changes I have noticed is my breasts have gone up a cup size, dry mouth for some reason? and I have found my acne has not gotten better/ maybe even worse. This pill is great for regulating periods though and you can skip the pack to delay it! I still get cramps but I would say they aren’t as painful or heavy as when I was off the pill which is a plus.

It was a decent contraceptive with not too many symptoms that I noticed. I used this while I was between Qlaira (which I loved but went out of stock). I knew that a low dose combined contraceptive suited me better so I gave this a shot as it seems to currently have the lowest in the market. I preferred Loette/Aviane which has an even lower dosage but was discontinued. On the whole, this one didn't give me crazy symptoms, and what was there was mild enough to deal with, but I was happy to move on to Kyleena soon after.
