I have Endometriosis and got my first surgery to remove a myoma this year. I had to start using birth control because of the risk of having other myomas and my anemia. I´m using it since 9 months and the first 3 months i was feeling good, even if it doesnt affect at all my bleeding. I was feeling better with my mood/PMS, got bigger boobs but the rest was the same. But, after 4-5 months i started gaining weight, having headahes quite often, still dealing with my anemia, and now i have dryeness in my vagina. Really low libido, my sexual relations are painful, i don´t recognize my body. I´m not able to connect with my body. I have my appointment with my Gyne soon, i´ve decided to stop using it.

Easy to use. However started having severe night sweats and have to sleep with AC very low. Love having regular periods. Went from 7 days of medium heavy bleeding to 3-4 light days. I did have a significant drop in my sex drive and it's now almost nonexistent which I did not know was a side effect. Overall though excellent birth control option
