Gedarel 30/150 pill - Combined Pill
Been using this pill for 6 years and it’s the only one I’ve tried. It has definitely helped with periods and cleared up acne unless having a week off. Did gain some weight and have a lot of trouble losing it. I believe this pill is one of the main causes of a depression diagnosis and causes a lot of headaches/migraines and mood swings.
