Millinette 30/75 pill and breast enlargement

I wanted so badly to like this pill, and thought because of the lower dose of hormones compared to other brands it might be better. Sadly it didn’t quite work out for me. I trialed it tri-cycling, running the packs back to back with no break, and normally with a 7 day break each month but nothing seemed to make a difference. Overall it made me feel quite numb day to day, as well as teary very easily (I cried over a video about slugs, and I don’t even like them). My sex drive went completely out the window, which has impacted me and my partner quite substantially - it takes real effort for me to get in the mood whilst being on this. I am frequently very tired, have constant headaches that last about a week every month, thrush every month during “ovulation” which takes about a week to clear with over the counter meds, vaginal dryness, lower back pain, and weight gain - although this could partially be a result of being in a happy relationship and a love for little sweet treats. My boobs have gotten bigger, but again this may be from the overall weight gain. No tender boobs, acne (as a past accutane user), awful cramps or pregnancy scares - which are definitely all positives! Everyone’s experience is different, and I’m not trying to fear monger at all, just want to be honest about my experience on this pill so that people who do extensive doom scroll research like me can be informed. Trying the mini pill once my cycle finishes in the hopes it at least stops the monthly thrush / headaches, but hopefully helps the other side effects lessen a bit too 🤞🏼

I had a really bad experience on this pill. I would have regular feelings of nausea every I gained significant weight because my appetite became insatiable. On top of that my breasts were extremely tender. The combination of these side effects really effected my self confidence, so I would not recommend this pill. However, it should be noted that I am extremely oestrogen sensitive and it did improve my skin.

My main reason for taking the pill is for stopping my period and contraceptive second. I don't take the 7 day break. I have heavy periods and now I don't have to worry about it anymore. However, after 3 months or so I do experience breakthrough bleeding, so it doesn't stop me bleeding completely. This was better than my experience on Gederal 30/150 as I was more prone to spotting monthly compared to the quarterly bleeding I have using Millinette on a lower hormone dose.
