Norgeston pill - Prog-only Pill

I changed to this mini-pill from Cerelle as that one gave me quite bad anxiety. Apart from slight weight gain, feeling tired in the few days before my period and having quite a heavy period in the beginning this pill has regulated my periods and shortened them. Will continue using it.

Hi, I was on Cerelle from age 19-21! I came off it because it wrecked my sex drive and gave me awful headaches. Looking at Norgeston now, did you notice any of those issues? :)
