Viorele birth control pill vs Estarylla birth control pill

I’m on this pill to help with my migraines. While I don’t feel the pill prevents migraines caused by my chronic vascular and cervicalgenic migraines, it controls my hormonal shifting during the month to prevent hormone-caused migraines.

Managed my periods well (virtually nonexistent) and never caused acne or weight gain. I would get headaches/ migraines around the time of the inactive pills. I fear that 16 years of birth control pill use have been bad for my body and I am taking a break. I noticed cramping and fatigue within weeks of stopping.

I actually really enjoyed the effect Estarylla had on my mood. It helped me through PPD (in combination with prenatals and exercise). However, it gave me nasty cystic acne, so I had to switch. Other birth controls have messed with my mood negatively, so I was really bummed to give this one up after the positive effect it had. The sex was good, too.

This birth control has been effective with stopping pregnancy while giving me light periods with little to no side effects.

Started experiencing mood changes with in a few days and it just kept getting worse
