| 2 | Prevent pregnancy | Tender breast, NO sex drive, and very large appetite. | F | 28 | 2 months | 6/24/2013 | 5 | used to get aura migraines | I was put on micronor because estrogen increased my chances of getting aura migraines. I was very good at taking my pill at the same time every day. In the first year if I took it off schedule even the slightest I would have spotting. I have. Or had a period since then. I never want kids and not having to deal with a period is the most amazing thing ever. In the past while I've been less good about taking it at the same time (new city new job new timezone etc). Still no period or spotting at all - but my boobs have doubled, and being that I was an A that is a good thing! I have gained about 5 pounds since the move because I'm not as devout at the gym - but before and after starting this pill I was very skinny. I have always had bad skin, so I missed that benefit of the estrogen pills, but with the right products and age I seem to be balanced now. All the reviews seem awful - and my friend also had a horrible experience. Guess I lucked out. No periods and perky boobs. | F | 35 | 5 years .35 mg | 6/10/2013 | 5 | blood pressure | Tired and no engery.Very anger all the time Just mean to everyone.very bad acne on my face and shoulder.This pill I have decided to stop tonight gladly.

Constant severe bloating, I can't fit into my clothes anymore!!! I crave bad food all the time, periods are every 3 weeks and cramping which I didn't have before, occasional acne, forgetting to take pill within 3 hours... I felt constantly sick and was eventually freaking out that something was wrong with me....turns out it was the BC. Ugh never again!!!!! I also did horribly before with Depo and my new doctor told me it's basically the same thing. If I had only known..... | F | 28 | 6 months 1x day | 4/9/2013 | 1 | estrogen free due to having cancer | I have been having mood swings which make it hard in my relationship. I get spots all over my face. Very tender breasts. Bad cramps and heavy bleeding and i was told I wouldnt bleed. So disappointed with this. Dont recommend at all. | F | 25 | 4 months | 3/27/2013 | 1 | to prevent pregnancy | Stopped my period then it appeared and it was very heavy. Bloated cramps worse then normal. Became very depressed and would cry and had thoughts of suicide | F | 29 | 3 days | 3/24/2013 | 2 | Migraines | Weight gain, one period since I started taking it, bloating, crams, stomach pains. | F | 17 | 5 months | 3/23/2013 | 1 | Birth control | Depression, stress, hating everyone, fInding everyday life hard. Extremely tired all the time feeling lazy, easily annoyed, lack in wanting sex, head aches. I couldnt take being on this pill any longer so I stopped 3 days ago and I'm feeling so much better already much to my fiancé and daughters delight, we were going to ttc in 3/4 months so will just condoms until then and hope it hasn't messed my body up to much. This pill is vile would NOT recommend!!!! | F | 21 | 4 months | 3/23/2013 | 3 | nursing/birth control | moodiness, heavier period | I started taking this when I was 6 weeks postpartum. I thought it was fine....the first two months I had a period that was very light and only lasted about 1 day. I had a period on Feb. 13, Feb. 25 it started back up again and has lasted 3 days so far and way heavier than my periods have ever been! For that fact, i already dont like this BC method. I also beleive that it is making me really moody!!!!!!!! And irritable! I want to get off of it, but i still want to continue nursing and NOT ready for another baby anytime soon!!! | F | 29 | 3 months 1X day | 2/27/2013 | 1 | Birth control | Started taking micronor as I was in new relationship and can't go on combined pill due migraines. 2 months on I have gained weight, my breasts are very tender and I have noticed a lump. My skin is dry and blotchy on my face and my hair seems greasy. I feel bloated all the time I have had 2 urine infections (never had before micronor) and a dose of thrush. I have become irritable and have lost interest in sex which is not great in a new relationship! The penny has dropped this pill had taken over my body and mind and I am not going to continue to poison myself anymore! | F | 29 | 2 months | 2/27/2013 | 1 | Birth Control | Sore nipples, bad back acne, cramps, less sleep, mood swings. | F | 35 | 6 months .35 1X day | 2/19/2013 | 2 | Prevent return of Endo | I had intense anxiety, depression and was constantly broken out on my chin! | F | 38 | 3 months 1X day | 2/12/2013 | 2 | Breastfeeding | Pregnancy | I was taking it after having my son becuause I was trying to still breastfeed but mostly pumping. My period was already irregular and was every 6 weeks, when I talked to the doctor about it he said that micronor would corect it and my body would go to a 4 week cycle but after a couple months if taking it I started to have the same feelings I did when pregnant with my son so I took a test and found out that I was infact pregnant. I now have a 16 month old and a 3 week old baby and again was put on the micronor because I'm breastfeeding. I think they need to invest in a birthcontrol that is safe well breastfeeding but actually works! (both kids were wanted just not so close together) | F | 26 | 1X day | 1/24/2013 | 1 | Birth Control | ACNE (cystic). Unstoppable. Around my mouth. | The only side effect, was unbelievable unstoppable untreatable acne. I work in sales and I am around men all day. It was embarrassing. Nothing would treat, diminish, deter, or control the acne. It occurred to me, all of a sudden why I was getting this acne. It just hit me "it's my pill". I went to the doctor the next morning, got Diane-35 and literally OVERNIGHT my skin is clearing up. I admit, I took 2 (I don't advise) and my skin will be okay tomorrow. If you have sudden acne, it's this pill. It did increase my libido. | F | 31 | 3 months 1X day | 1/16/2013 | 5 | Breastfeeding | I started taking this pill because my doctor prescribed it because I was breastfeeding. I have stopped breastfeeding my daughter about 2 and half months ago, and I'm still taking it. I have not gotten my period yet, since before I found out I was pregnant. I was worried I might be pregnant. I dod understand that being on this pill can affect your period. After reading all the comments about this pill. Seems like heaven sent. I'm really good at remember to take it the same time daily. I have put the pack at a place where I can see it through out the day. So it's hard to forget to take it. I haven't really experienced any mood swing that I've experienced on other pills in the past. However, I have gained weight. But it's nothing I can't work off in the gym! | F | 32 | 9 months | 1/11/2013 | 1 | Nursing/birth control | I was nursing my daughter so I had no choice initially, but when I stopped nursing, I was having periods like every other week. I just thought my cycle would be irregular after pregnancy, but it went on for months!! And the decreased libido, and easily being irritates were other major side effects. Going back to tricyclic birth control pill. | F | 34 | 8 months | 1/1/2013 | 1 | heavy periods | weight gain - 18 pounds since using,craving bad food and constantly hungry,bloated tummy (look 9 months pregnant),periods every 3 weeks that are worse than before,headaches,forgetting to take pill within 3 hours,went to gp last week who has advised me to stop taking this which i did. | F | 43 | 5 months 1X day | 12/30/2012 | 1 | Birth Control | Im still worried i could be pregnant . this whole not having a regular period is absolutely horrible. i have mood swings like crazy. i am breaking out and its making me feel like im in middle school all over again. im constantly depressed. im nauseas, stressed and have horrible back pain i thought i was crazy for blaming this for being the reason for all this stuff but it seems like the majority of people taking this have the same thing going on as well | F | 19 | 1X day | 12/26/2012 | 4 | planned pregnancy | I have experienced a little bit of a loss in my sex drive but otherwise these pills have helped a lot. My periods are shorter and easier to manage. I haven't experienced any weight gain because of the pills, and I'm less irritable. I'm overall satisfied with micronor. | F | 23 | 2 years 1x Daily | 12/21/2012 |
