I was prescribed this by a gynecologist to treat PMDD. It has worked amazingly, my mood has been very stable since I started it 10 months ago. My symptoms are gone, my energy levels are normal, I’ve been more patient with the kids. The only issues are hair loss when I started (which sorted itself out after a few months), low sex drive (but it was low any way). The only issue is the slight clotting risk due to oestrogen, it fills me with fear. It is supposed to be lower than other combined pills but due to my age and other risk factors it concerns me. I am considering trying Slynd to see if it has a similar effect, but I’d happily go back to this if need be. A very good pill!

I swapped from Yasmin to Qlaira when I was suspected to have endometriosis - I took it constantly with no withdrawal bleed and was very pleased with the results. I noticed my moods levelled out after having mood swings while on other pills, my skin cleared up and I only had pain during my few days of light withdrawal bleed. Over all I was very happy with it. I was told by my doctor that is it a newer pill and only recently being used to manage endometriosis.
