Brevinor pill - Combined Pill

My periods were really heavy. I would lose so much blood in the first 2 days that I’d be really, really dizzy and weak. I had excruciating pelvic pain at least 2-3 (sometimes more) a week. I was taken to A&E a couple of times as I passed out due to pain. I thought this was normal… but then I stopped taking Brevinor after a couple of years. The pain reduced significantly. Still had pelvic pain with Cerazette (mini pill) but not as frequently. I’m not on any pills now and I feel so much better. No pelvic pain, no mood swings, no tears.

Experience coming off Brevinor pill

Frequency of intense excruciating pelvic trauma pain significantly reduced after stopping Brevinor. Periods were not as heavy (used to leak through several night time pads and feel dizzy).
