This contraception worked well for me for many years. In the end I looked at the possible side effects and affiliated myself with quite a few of them so I decided to try something different.

I had experienced lots of breast and nipple tenderness and a painful first day on my period for many years and after I stopping taking Gedarel I experienced none of this. I've also noticed my hair gets greasier quicker and I have more oil on my face when I wake up in the morning - I usually have pretty dry skin.
