Hailey Fe 1/20 birth control pill  

So far, I have not had the great experience. I keep spotting a lot after my period ended and seems like it’s never ending so far no cramping, but never experienced this before.

Hailey Fe 1/20 birth control pill  

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.

Nikki birth control pill  

Headaches when using placebo pills. Improved when taken continuously but then had weeks of spotting. Thighs noticeably bigger. Weight increase 2-3 pounds over 3 months. Previously on Yaz in my late 20s and early 30s - loved it. This one did not work for me in my mid 40s
