I overall didn’t really have a problem with this. I was getting really bad acne on my cheeks and literally as soon as I started taking this I completely stopped getting pimples... which is great!!! I did notice I had a few mood swings - nothing too bad. My boobs got a little bigger but on the 7 days off the pill it got back to normal and then when I started taking it again it grew a little, vice versa. I also did notice my bloatings lasted longer. The only thing i have to complain about this is how PAINFUL my cramps were on the first day i got my period. I have always been lucky to barely ever get cramps when i was on my period, but seriously the first day cramps i felt when i got off the pill just for 7 days were the WORST. This was my first time on the pill and I don’t have any seriously complaints at all xx

I used ovranette for 3 months having changed from a different type of pill as I felt the side effects were too strong. Unfortunately I experienced similar side effects with ovranette, most notably uncontrollable mood swings which I had never had before (crying for no reason, feeling angry about small things, stressed and anxious). Also I developed painful spots on my face. My periods seem to have gotten heavier and more painful too.

This pill made me become very emotional and also caused loss of sex drive
