| 5 | PPMD, painful periods, depression | N/A | This pill has been wonderful. I used to dread my periods, not anymore. I no longer have painful cramps. I used to get severely depressed, super hungry, and couldn't sleep two weeks before my period. All of these symptoms have been reduced to maybe three days now. I know meds work differently for everyone. I've had a very positive experience with these pills. I feel like they saved my life! | 38 | 2 years 1.5/30 1X day | 8/12/2014 | 5 | Endometriosis | Less cravings, less hungry , less sleep. | I love this bc. I was on junel fe before this dosage and then I started bleeding through the lower dose, typical endo. I have struggled to lose weight on almost all bc but this one I seem to be able to control my cravings and food intake. Other BC's I was always hungry and couldn't control my intake now I've lost 10 pounds and sleep way less, I'm bot sure to be annoyed or okay with it s iij nce most of the time I really struggled with my fatigue and exhaustion. I still have endo pain unfortunately but I recommend this bc. It's easier than most and less side effects in my opinion. The trick tho is definitely to. And make sure you are drinking the right amount of water if I don't that's when my bc effects my moods and all.. | 26 | 28 days 1.5 | 6/12/2020 | 1 | To regulate my period | Bloating, cramping, severe anxiety, depression. Made me feel like I was going crazy. | 35 | 4 days | 7/26/2019 | 5 | Irregular Periods | Cramping and or diarrhea. Heavy clotting in the beginning, almost my entire cycle but has now lightened dramatically. | I have always suffered from irregular periods. Always! I have tried everything you can think of and nothing had ever worked. When I started this it immediately regulated my cycle. I did suffer from heavy clotting in the beginning but it has since subsided. I would rather deal with that for a couple of days then have my period for weeks at a time all the time. I'm thankful I found something that works for me. I wish I had found this earlier. I would definitely recommend this from my experiences. | F | 42 | 6 months 1.5/30 | 12/31/2019 | 5 | long, painful periods | slight weight loss | This works great, my periods are much shorter, more predictable, and I no longer get cramps! | F | 23 | 8 months 1.5/30 1X day | 8/9/2015 | 5 | bled for 26 days on mononessa | I have experienced decreased appetite which makes me happy considering I was nervous about the fuss of weight gain. Also, been in a pretty good mood. Haven't noticed it changing that. As well as my sex drive has increased. Great pill so far, hoping I don't jinx myself ;) but hormones work different on everyone just depends on your body. however I recommend it if you were desperate like I was to stop the crazy non stop bleeding. | F | 19 | 3 days | 9/26/2017 | 5 | to prevent pregnancy | Weight loss -no complaints here Breast tenderness Light breakthrough spotting Slight irratibility some days | F | 20 | 2 months | 2/10/2012 | 5 | painful periods, prevent pregnancy | little nausea at first but that went away after a couple months. | I used to have very very painful periods and I would have cramps for at least 3 weeks out of the month. Sore breasts for usually at least 2-3 weeks. Bleeding was also very very heavy and terrible. After taking junel all of that has stopped and now I only get cramps a few days before and during my period and they are very manageable. It also helped with my acne. | F | 17 | 4 months 1X day | 11/28/2020 | 4 | prev pregnancy+regulate cycle | slightly increased hair loss, low libido, vaginal dryness. | I love this medicine! I had bad nausea, headaches, and even vomiting with another hormone BC. This one has given me no severe side effects! I do notice a slight increase in hair loss, but it's not significant. I have almost zero sex drive though, and when I had sex for the first time in 3 months I was extremely dry (combo of low libido causing dryness and this drug directly affecting it) | F | 20 | 8 months 1X day | 11/8/2021 | 4 | prev pregnancy+regulate cycle | slightly increased hair loss, low libido, vaginal dryness. | I love this medicine! I had bad nausea, headaches, and even vomiting with another hormone BC. This one has given me no severe side effects! I do notice a slight increase in hair loss, but it's not significant.

No other side effects. Didn't make me gain weight like I had anticipated it would, always a plus. | F | 23 | 3 months | 2/22/2012 | 4 | Suppose to be similar to gildess | Bad back acne and a little nausea. | I was on Glidess for the longest time, then it got recalled and after that I've been on 4 different birth controls and I seriously had to stop taking birth control cause I couldn't find anything. But I went on Nurx and they suggested junel 1.5/30 and I tried junel 1/20 so I was scared I was gonna have the same side effects but luckily I've been loving junel 1.5/30, i like the fact i dont have to take pills for a week and my period comes immediately. I'm not moody not as hungry my sex drive is still the same, but my acne on my back hurts so bad and I'm giving it more time to even out. But other then that I'm actually enjoying this birth control. | F | 22 | 48 days | 9/17/2017 | 4 | Birth control | Weight gain | Increased appetite so I am hungry all the time. Also, I have gained about 3 lbs since I started this pill three weeks ago. Everything else is perfect! | F | 30 | 3 weeks | 5/17/2015 | 4 | Heavy cycle | F | 39 | 7 days 30 | 12/8/2019 | 3 | Heavy Periods | Mood swings, tender breast, spotting, weight gain | They switched me from Gildess to this one around 5 months ago the only thing I noticed Right away was mood swings they are horrible! But now I'm noticing tender breast and spotting this has just been happening recently tho. It's making me think I need To run and get a pregnancy test cause this is weird for me. Anyone else done this?? | F | 30 | 5 months 30 MG | 6/19/2020 | 3 | Stop bleeding from ovarian cyst | Bad acne on my back, very stable mood, thinning hair, and my bleeding and period completely stopped the entire time I was on this. Also helped me stay thin. | Wish there was an in between formula of 1/25. I think the 1.5 of the norethindone is too much for me but I dont want to go as low as 20mcg of the estradiol. Too bad. | F | 23 | 1 years | 4/28/2020 | 3 | Preventing pregnancy | I get really really bad cramps on the first two days of my period which is not normal for me, my period used to last five days now it last three or four. I do get really bad tender breast even when Im not close to my period I still dont know if thats normal to anyone else whos taking this. | Is it normal for my breasts to be tender when Im not close to my period? Is this a normal side effect | F | 18 | 4 weeks | 5/4/2020 | 3 | Regulate cycle | When I started Junel I experienced headaches, nausea, and hunger. When I ate I got extremely sick but I was still hungry. My cycle came on my second week into the pulls now my cycle has been in 11 days and won't leave and I'm finished with the pack and can't take no more for 7 days I'm on the the 21 day pack. | F | 24 | 3 weeks 20 | 8/11/2015 | 3 | regulate period | weight gain, mood swings, always hungry, very low sex drive | I started takin junel to regulate my period. I took it for a year and had no problems with it regulating my period but while taking it I gained weight. had terrible mood swings (I used to always be in a good mood), felt tired all the time, had very low sex drive and felt hungry all the time.. I am going to stop taking it and hope that all of these symptoms go away.. tired of feeling like this! | F | 23 | 1 years 1.5 | 2/21/2015 | 3 | Birth control, hormonal fluctuation | I've was on junel about 3 years ago and was satisfied with it completely. I went off it and got horrible hormonal acne and I'm 28, eat organic, non GMO, etc! My hormone levels were spiking and I had too much testosterone in me. My doctor put me back on junel and upped my dose to higher estrogen and progestin to see if it helps. My boobs have become plumper and tender, I am extremely bloated to where my pants barely button and my scale says I've gained about 5 pounds in a month. I'm gonna give it another 2 months because I've heard these symptoms lessen. Also, my sex drive has not dipped, if anything, it's increased. I was depressed for the first week and a half but now I feel great. I put somewhat satisfied because I happy about everything so far, just angry about he bloating. | F | 28 | 1 days | 3/14/2014 |
