I was on this pill just shy of a month. I was bloating on the first day of use. I noticed the first week my mental state was horrible very agitated, flat and no energy. I did notice after the first few weeks my skin was definitely clearing up. I get hormonal acne. I had reduced hair loss (from endometriosis) and no ovulation pain. 3rd week in I started to get a sharp pain in the calf. Subsided then came back worse. So decided to stop taking it all together because leg pain wasn't worth the possibility of a blood clot. Three days off the pill the leg pain completely disappeared. Definitely was not the pill for me. Cons- Low mood Low sex drive Joint pain Sore lower back Constant bloating Extreme calf pain Insomnia Nausea Chest hypertension Pros- Clearer skin Less hair loss No ovulation pain

In general I am happy with this pill and I would not like to stop it (there are not many pills that I tolerate), the problem is that since the third box my hair has been falling out a lot, I don't know if it is because before I took Valette which has ethinyl estradiol which It is much more powerful, but it is starting to be overwhelming. I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this effect and if it goes away over time, I would appreciate it if you told me in the comments since I am quite worried.

I found this pill effected my moods, over a longer period of time it gave me PMS like symptoms but without following a regular cycle so it could be hard to predict. However I have found coming off it harder, it’s really affected my skin I’ve developed bad constant acne almost immediately after coming off and it’s not settled down despite being three months. This is not an issue I had before using this pill and I found my skin had changed while on it.
