Slynd pill reviews

I had pelvic pain while on this pill and I had to undergo a bunch of tests as my doctor didnt know what was causing the pain. The pain gradually stopped when i stopped taking the pill (it took about 3 months). The pill gave me bad acne, mood swings (I was going mad!), i had my period once in 3 months and maybe it was just some spotting... i was sometimes very dizzy and my heart was racing even if I was just watching TV. This pill really scared me and I had to stop.

I’m taking Slynd to treat Endometriosis symptoms. Overall I’m satisfied - I’m having much less pain and am bleeding a lot less than before. Also my migraines seem to have disappeared completely since I’m on this pill! The one negative though is the constant spotting. The first months I had constant spotting/breakthrough bleeding. Then it got better for a few months - I only spotted for a few days every 45 days or so. But now I seem to be back to bleeding/spotting pretty much all the time again (and I’ve been on this for 2 years now!). Definitely annoying but I’ll stick with it for a while longer to see if it gets better again.

I was on Slynd for 2.5 years, starting from my 6-week postpartum appointment. Unlike other hormonal birth control methods, it didn't cause any bloating or weight gain. Breakthrough bleeding was common for the first 3 months. Periods were irregular, very light and sometimes absent. Irritability and loss of libido were intense throughout, hence I stopped taking it.

I was recommended this pill to help with migraines. It didn’t really have any effect on migraines for me but I had a lot of other side effects. Vaginal dryness, low mood, low sex drive were some. I’m not 100% sure if it was related or if it’s a coincidence but my teeth were very sensitive the whole time I was on this pill too.

Everything is good except hair loss

I began this medication at 5 weeks postpartum to prevent pregnancy while breast feeding. I was experiencing brain fog, terrible memory, complete loss of sex drive… Initially I wrote these off as part of the postpartum experience but over a year later and these symptoms were worsening and new side effects like weight gain were developing. I’ve decided to go off the pill entirely at this point.
