Its regulated my periods, made them lighter and helps with PMDD I still ovulate most months on norgeston but thats normal apparently, Im not too worried about it, i have noticed my boobs have gone up a cup size or two but compared to desogestorel its been amazing, i had a period for 5 weeks on desogestorel then i was off for 1 and back on for 5 etc now im every 28 days like clockwork
Very positive mood

I’ve gained some weight but I don’t think it was the pill alone, other factors such as other medication and enjoying food are at play! I’ve enjoyed having a regular cycle (still ovulating) with less intense highs and lows emotionally but no impact to libido. Has been helpful for PMS overall. Some side effects are headaches and tender/larger breasts. I’ve adjusted the 3 hour window to take this pill a few times with ease too.
Somewhat positive mood
