Cilest pill - Combined Pill
I really liked this pill. I visited my GP in 2014 as Microgynon was making me cry at everything and feel insecure and he switched me to Cilest which I loved. I believe it is now discontinued which is a shame as I would recommend it.

Experience coming off Cilest pill
This pill (at the time I didn't realise) was actually levelling out my moods. After coming off Cilest I was diagnosed with generalised anxiety disorder (to be clear - not as a result of coming off contraception) but I think the pill had been levelling my moods for years before.
