My very favorite thing about the Caya is that there really are no side effects. I am not putting anything into my body that is changing the way my body functions- I put it in, leave it in a while, and then I remove it. No hormones, nothing! I’ve been advised that while the Caya can be 80+% effective when used correctly, it’s best to use it with spermicide and condoms. It is tricky to insert the first few times but super easy to remove and I quickly got the hang of a quick and easy insertion! I did find it really difficult to find a pharmacy that sold the Caya (I guess they aren’t as popular now)- but all in all, it’s been fantastic so far! I love that my body gets to function as it normally would but that the Caya helps prevent pregnancy

it’s fine, I got back in it after being on a higher hormonal dosage then going off — and it’s definitely helped my acne. But I do feel really bloated and eh

I wanted a pill that I'd still have my period on and that was good, but I wasn't thrilled about not having a sex drive.

Made my period short and regular but so heavy. Like only 2-3 days but going through a super plus every couple hours.

It has been incredibly effective with preventing pregnancy. As long as it is taken consistently. Weight gain and loss of sex drive started within the first 6 months of taking.

I think Yaz has gotten a bad rap in the past, but for me it was totally fine. It was a great choice for me at the time and I experienced no major side effects. I would recommend this to others.

I've heard it works for some people but not for me. It made me so moody where I could tell there was a major difference than the other brand I was using. I got bad acne every week before my period (did not happen before this pill). The only positive was that I had no cramps and my period was lighter.

I didn't see this on the list of option but I take Lo Seasonique. It's a 90-day pill and I've taken it for 13 years.

All things considered, I’ve experienced minimal negative side effects while on Junel Fe 1/20. It does seem to have affected my mood and sex drive somewhat, so that’s worth considering.
