Using Sltnd for Endo rather than a contraceptive, this is my second month. First month I had breakthrough bleeding for 23 days but no period this month. Not had awful ovulation pain like before and my pain has reduced somewhat. Headaches are a bit of a pain as I am not a headachy person usually. Had a very stressful two months so not sure if my mood is stress or the pill. It has affected my sex drive but this can be affected alot by pain so we manage that anyway. So far I feel like it's helped with pain definitely need to give it longer. I don't take the placebo pills until month 3 so I take slynd constantly till month 3 as doctor recommended to do so.

I started using slynd around 6 months ago for period control due to heavy flow and pain Initially I felt optimistic I never took the placebo green pills as I was on tricycling method I still had a period every month with ovarian pain I had a 4 week spotting episode I’ve had 3 utis which I never had in my life every month for the last 3 My sex drive dropped off the earth and there was none My mood went from frantic cycling cleaning the house and obsessing over things to emotionally crying before feeling stupid and back to normal The biggest thing for me was hair loss at least half my hair fell Out in week one I stayed commuted thinking it would get better until bald patches started to appear in month 5 that’s when I jd enough I also had graphic nightmares waking up with sweating so bad my sheets were soaked Since finished this pill I feel like I’m getting back to me with no mood swings or low mood I am 38 and maybe I needed some Oestrogen to balance it out this pill was not for me

The Slynd pill has helped my adenomyosis symptoms! I used to have extremely heavy and painful periods that were so bad that I couldn't walk and leave the house. I had to take high doses of codeine. Apart from a bit of nausea on the first two days (couldve been my period though as I took the pill on the first day of my period) I haven't had any negative side effects.
