I was prescribed this pill and told to take it continuously to help with severe PMS and hormone withdrawl symptoms before the break bleed. I have been in a long term relationship for 7 years. I've tried many other oral contraceptives before this one (rigevidon, yasmin, cilest, dianette). When I was younger I suffered from hormonal acne and dianette helped to clear it but I couldn't stay on it for long because of increased risks and side effects. This is the first pill I've tried that's regulated my mood somewhat, hasn't effected my skin, and taking it continuously means I don't suffer from hormone withdrawal symptoms. The only downside is I struggle to keep weight off and have had increased breast pain on this pill, which seems to have regulated now but sometimes can be a bit annoying. I also get frequent UTIs, however this has calmed down after a longer course of antibiotics from the doc. Overall I'm happy with this pill, and it's the one I've stuck with the longest. However I'm a bit concerned what will happen when I decide to come off of it eventually and if my hormone withdrawal might be worse.
