Noriday pill - Prog-only Pill

Only progestogen based contraception I've been able to tolerate. Allll others (pills, jab, implant, coil) made me bleed irregularly and made me moody. This one has been fine, over a year in use and though periods were a little less regular, they were about on time. I did start getting some extra bleeding around 9-12 months after starting it, but I think my body is just weird. I did still ovulate while taking, but it still prevented pregnancy. Did gain some weight but could have been a result of lockdown and inactivity rather than the pill. Did have some stomach issues, but was diagnosed with ins a long time ago, which has been okay for years now, so possibly related. Was getting a bit moody here and there, again, maybe not related to the pill. Overall I was satisfied with the experience, unlike the others I've tried. Stopped taking due to getting sterilised instead.
