So started micronor again. Seemed ok, but increasing leg pain at night, body acne which takes forever to heal. Skin more oily, lower back pain, difficulty with orgasms, (numb feeling), heavy discharge with a metallic odor increasing from 3-4 x per month to every day. Tired all the time, brain fog, difficulty losing weight despite restricted diet, bad anxiety, irritability which has also increased over two years.stylist commented how my hair is shedding, increased body hair growth and needing to shave twice daily. Have tried every pill so will be getting the paragard iud. | F | 38 | 2 years | 3/5/2016 | 1 | Birth control | Very sore breast. Bad mood swings nearly split up with my partner through taking these. Not recommend if you want to stay in a relationship. | Not recommended depression side effects felt suicidal | F | 40 | 3 months 30mg | 2/16/2016 | 1 | As contraception | Sore breasts, anger, depression, unbearable pmt, bloating, constant wind and stomache pain, puffy eyes, tiredness | Have been taking this pill for 6 years have been increasingly becoming depressed, tired, periods are missed though my pmt would last some times six weeks a time and the period would come and pmt symptoms would remain, some periods come a week apart and I suffer so bad from this, been put on anti depressants to control my rage, yet I never until just recently thought the pill would be causing this, I had believed that as it was the mini pill it would not cause such sever side effects, I've put myself on the sterilisation waiting list and am dreaming of the day I stop taking it, though I feel gutted I have suffered so long without revising the problem. | F | 38 | 6 days 1X day | 2/11/2016 | 3 | Cramps | feeljng bloated irritable and weight gain. Just wondering if any body knows what happens when you quit micronor what are the side effects .im wanting to quit | F | 51 | 6 months 30mg | 2/3/2016 | 2 | Periods too heavy | All was fine for 3 months and suddenly breasts grew insanely painful to the point where I have trouble sleeping, stomach cramps so bad I cannot walk and another period a week after the last. It was going so well what happened? :( | I tried Cerazette but it didn't work either, going back to the nurse will anything ever work for me? | F | 23 | 4 months 350 MGC | 2/1/2016 | 2 | Heavy periods | Irregular periods, lengthy bleeds. | I have been taking micronor for two years as I can't have oestrogen due to migraines with aura. At first everything went like clockwork. Regular periods with reduced flow. Bliss. Then it all went wrong. I often missed periods, which I was fine about, but when they arrived they just wouldn't go away. Bleeding for months at a time. My GP said it was simply clearing out my built up womb lining, but how much can one woman have? The bleeding is bad enough but the headaches, mood swings and cramps are awful too. I can't take this anymore. It's a hell of a pill. | F | 41 | 2 years 30mg | 1/29/2016 | 1 | Birth control/nursing | Seemed to be angrier, moody, a lot more clogged pores, period it seems every 2.5 weeks, more facial hair, and losing hair. | I would not recommend. Terrible. Do not go on this pill if you can help it. | F | 28 | 9 months | 1/26/2016 | 5 | birth control | Since taking micronor I've actually lost weight after struggling to for years.only downside smaller breasts. | F | 41 | 7 years 1 a day | 1/18/2016 | 1 | Birth control | Mood swings, depression, no sex drive, withdrawn from everything. | Don't take it if you value your relationships with your partner, family and friends!! | F | 34 | 3 months 30 MG | 1/14/2016 | 5 | Horrible PMS and cramps | frist 6 months: weight gain, breast growth, dark skin on face, vaginal dryness, low libido, bloating, After 6 months: Almost all of these have gone away (I think) | It's changed my insane 3 week long PMS symptoms to a 2-3 day affair. My long, heavy and clotty period (needed to change an ultra max tampon every 2-3 hours) into a light/normal one (a light tampon lasts 4-5 hours now). Although I can't use it as contraception because I"m late far too often (3 hours is a missed pill and that sucks) I think I'll be on this for a long time since it's a life saver for me. I'm on this pill since I had very severe and abnormal side effects with the combined pill. | F | 26 | 10 months .35 1X day | 12/3/2015 | 2 | Just had my baby few months ago | I havent got my period for two months get migraines every other week gained weight feel moody get stomach cramps little depression not the pill for me | F | 25 | 4 months .35 | 12/3/2015 | 3 | After having a blood clot | Heavy periods, weight gain, acne, facial hair growth, oily/dry skin. | Was prescribed this contraception 2 years ago. Shortly after giving birth to my daughter I was on the dianette pill for 6 months. While on this dianette I got a DVT (BLOOD CLOT) so was taken off this immediately. Health professionals then told me that my only form of contraception would be the micronor pill. I agreed (as I didn't want to fall pregnant again) and have been taking this micronor pill for 18 months. At the beginning I was fine up until June/July this year (2015) I've been getting facial hair growth, especially around the chin area. Acne, also around the chin area. Very heavy periods. Weight gain, dramatically! I've always been a size 10, I'm now a 14! Feel depressed and angry which is getting worse. I just don't know what to do anymore. I've been to my doctor's unaccountable times and they're doing nothing. I have decided to take this matter into my own hands and have taken myself off micronor. If my partner wants sex, then we will use condoms. Please look more into this form of contraception before taking it. | F | 29 | 2 years | 11/26/2015 | 2 | Migraines, family history of clots | Oily hair, oily skin, acne, low sex drive, back and chest acne. | Never have I experienced so much oiliness and constant acne! I switched from Tricyclen about 6 months ago and was put on this medication due to health reasons. I recommend reading plenty of reviews and discussing with your doctor before agreeing to take any new birth control. First three months I had no periods at all and things were going great. It wasn't until around the 6 month mark where all hell broke lose! I bleed every other week! My poor boyfriend never gets sex anymore because this pill took all the desire for sex away! I have naturally dry curly hair and every since taking Micronor it is extremely oily I have to wash it way too much which is damaging. But probably the worst part is my skin is now very oily and filled with acne in places I've NEVER had acne before! | F | 21 | 6 months 0.35mg 1X day | 11/16/2015 | 1 | Irregular/Heavy Periods | I took these for three months, and had no issues. When I stopped taking them I started having vaginal discharge, dryness, no period, and to top it all off I now have a fecal body odor that I have the hardest time with, imbalance, depression, very tired, etc. I do NOT recommend this pill to anyone! One month has passed since I stopped taking them, and the side effects keep getting worse. I pray I return to my original flora asap! | F | 32 | 3 months | 11/1/2015 | 1 | to stop my periods | Headaches,back pain,cramping,dizzyness,weak,aches all over my body,bleeding every other week,depressed,moody | Worse pill ever,my whole life has changed,im in pain all the time,im depressed,never wanna go out cause i havent got the energy,coming off it today cause i have enough,messes with your sex life,its just the WORSE THING EVER,STAY AWAY | F | 33 | 2 months | 10/31/2015 | 1 | birth control | LOW sex drive, extreme vaginal dryness, mood swings, depression, oily hair, face/chin breakouts, longer heavy period, random monthly spotting | Micronor was the choice for me because of migraines with other oral birth control options | F | 40 | 3 months 35 1X day | 10/23/2015 | 1 | Prevent pregnancy, high BP | Anxiety, less motivation, gained 5 lbs. Retain water, feel less like myself, less patience, skip periods, irregular periods, chest pains | Would not recommend. Do not let your doctor pressure you into using any birth control. With this one the cons outweighed the pros significantly. | F | 28 | 10 months | 10/19/2015 | 1 | Contraception | Moodiness, Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Extreme tiredness, lack of motivation | This is the worst pill I have ever taken. I developed extreme anxiety that crippled me in my every day life. I am now on an anti-depressent and often get episodes of crying and severe mood swings - it is horrible. It has caused a great deal of tension between me and my boyfriend due to me becoming more clingy and demanding. Avoid at all costs | F | 20 | 4 months 1 per day | 10/19/2015 | 1 | Birth control after NB | Itchy skin, face broke out in red rash, and severe mood swings. Started bleeding after 3 days. | I took it for only 4 days and hated it. I went from being happy to sad, depressed and angry. Stopped after i start bleeding on day 4. Will never ever ever ever take it again | F | 26 | 4 days | 10/18/2015 |
