I'm currently on a waiting list for a gynaecology assessment for potential endometriosis adhesions, and I went on this pill to prevent me from ovulating and having periods as these are both becoming disruptive. The first few days I had a bit of a headache but nothing major. Then I noticed my breasts were incredibly painful and this continued the whole time I was on it. I had low level cramping almost every day with occasional spotting. The worst part was my mood, it was very 'flat' and I felt quite withdrawn but in particular I felt incredibly anxious to the point of almost having a panic attack. I stopped taking it after 3.5 weeks and my symptoms eased straight away. I'm trying Zoely next so fingers crossed!

Mostly positive but the mood swings are the worst, never used to cry and now it’s nearly everyday! More regular periods and clearer skin, overall not bad!

I got moved onto this after happily being on Norimin-1/Norimin for a number of years (there was a shortage in the UK). I stuck with it for 6 months, but as someone with a very steady mood I found I was very teary, had no sex drive, and felt very flat. I also found it increased my PMS symptoms dramatically. Just changed back to Norimin-1 and looking forward to feeling myself again!
