  • Was on it for 6 years! Is only pill that didn't give me break thru bleeding and only a 2 day period! I was only off it 1 month and got pregnant. Wanted to use it again but my ins won't pay for it and its 83 a month. So I'm on the generic
  • @amab13, @sophiasmom11, @augustbaby

    thank u ladies! are their any side effects that you may have experienced? I started on Tuesday and I'm a bit nervous
  • I liked the light periods but it made me really moody
  • I didn't have any side effects and loved it! I would get an extremely light period for about 2-3 days.
  • I dont want to change your mind if you have decided to take it bur when I took it my period got all screwed up and I was very hormonal I had to stop taking it......
  • I had my period for 2-3 days each week on this and my hormones were all screwed up :-(
  • I loved it! Im most likely doing that after I have my baby again :)
  • Was on it a long time ago and loved it. Tried going back on it before I got married last year and it made me reality sick and I gained weight... But it may have just been my body cuz I tried others and it was the same.... Had to stop taking bc all together, hence why I'm pregnant LOL I was only off it for like a month!
  • I didn't have any bad side effects..wanted to go back on it !
  • When I started taking it I bled for like 3 weeks so I stopped taking it, hence why I got pregnant.
  • @1stWoodsBaby
    wow... I'm hoping for a better outcome. How long after beginning did u start bleeding for so long?
  • @vanalkr, @kenzie0713
    how long after taking it does it become a problem. I just started so I'm looking out for what to expect if it goes wrong
  • Within 3 months I was able to tell something was wrong told my dr and he didnt do anything.....within 7 months I decided to stop taking it
  • I'm on it. Yes I recommend it. I skip my periods on it
  • The only side effect i have is im more emotional like over sweet things or sad but we all got used to that being pregnant. I can tell you that if you go to the mini pill it may turn you into a monster lol. My bd won't let me take it
  • Mine happened within the first 2 weeks
  • Honestly everyone reacts differently to different BC. That's why there are so many kinds! Unfortunately u kinda have to Just try it out and see. If u have a bad reaction/ bad side effects, hopefully you have a good Dr who can make a more well educated recommendation for future attempts of birth control.
