The minipill gave me pretty bad acne, which took years to resolve after I gave up the pill. It also completely killed my sex drive.

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.
