I have suspected endometriosis and this has been life-changing for me because it's completely stopped my periods! However, it's also given me spotting after sex and bouts of stubborn thrush. The thrush almost made me quit, but the benefits (no periods or crippling cramps) outweigh the cons. I'm also happy that it hasn't affected my mood at all because previous pills made me extremely depressed.

I have endometriosis and wanted something that would stop my period and ovulation, slynd did this but it also gave me such low blood pressure I was having pins and needles in my extremities, I had crippling anxiety, felt like I was on the edge of a panic attack constantly, intense chest pain to the point I had a full ecg to be sure my heart was ok, I was constipated, I had no sex drive and couldn’t reach orgasm most of the time even alone, I also had irritation and dryness down there and overall it was just awful I wouldn’t wish this pill on anyone. If you have high blood pressure it might help but low is a bad move
Very negative mood
