I completely lose my sex drive when taking the pill. The vaginal dryness isn't as bad with the mini-pill as it is with the combined for me. I started experiencing muscle twitches on this pill which I personally feel are linked so have stopped taking it.

I changed to this mini-pill from Cerelle as that one gave me quite bad anxiety. Apart from slight weight gain, feeling tired in the few days before my period and having quite a heavy period in the beginning this pill has regulated my periods and shortened them. Will continue using it.

my periods became quite irregular as I experienced bleeding every two weeks, although this began to settle down after the 3rd/4th month of taking it. I had gained a bit of weight and my skin became more spotty than usual (but this could have also been due to poor diet at the time). The main reason I stopped taking it was because it caused quite bad nausea which became worse after a few months and affected me almost every day.
