 2  Birth control Fatigue, anxiety, dry, painful intercourse, lack of sex drive I took this pill for 8 years. No weight gain and breasts remained the same. I had no problems for years but as I grew older I realized my body changing. I developed GAD whether it was from this pill though I'm not sure. I was also constantly tired and had no motivation to do anything. Sex also became painful because this pill made me so dry. Didnt matter though since I had no sex drive anyway. It was interfering with my relationship. Why take a pill for birth control if you don't want to have sex? I switched pills and my drive is back. Had breakthrough bleeding while taking Zenchent so now I'm trying another pill F 25 8 days

 5  Irregular periods/premenopause None I have been very happy with this pill. I have experienced no side effects and it has worked to regulate my periods. Previously, I was quite sensitive to birth control so I was worried about using this. I just feel much better because I'm not bleeding for 2 weeks at a time and cramping. F 45 3 months

 5  avoid pregnancy No bad side effects at all. Only the good side effects of lighter, regular periods with no cramps. Was awesome. I only stopped it because I haven't been sexually active and figured maybe I'd see what it's like to not be on it for now. Bad idea! My cramps are back and I never know when my period is coming. Don't understand how others are having side effects but it shows me that everyone's bodies are different. F 35 3 years

 2  painful, heavy periods. birth contr I had anxiety when I first began taking this medication - to the point where I made an appointment with a therapist because I couldn't figure out what was wrong. The anxiety went away after a few weeks and I did alright up until recently. I've been under stress and now I'm having the same feelings of anxiety, even more intensely. I have never had anxiety until being on this pill. Also, my libido has become very low. I'm definitely stopping this pill, even if I have to face my painful periods. :( F 29 8 months

 1  Birth control, period cramps Bad acne break outs. The pill makes me feel depressed and anixous. I'm restless and gaining weight. My breast are always tender. My periods last forever and the blood is brown no longer red. I'm very dizzy all the time and nauseas every morning. I wouldn't reccomend this pill. It drains me and I'm always tired. If I dont eat with my pill I feel extremely sick the next morning. I threw up from it and it was so painful. F 18 1 months

 3  prevention of pregnancy and cramp r I started taking this because my cycle dramatically changed. I have been taking it for 3 weeks now. I am nauseous and dizzy all the time (although I haven't thrown up yet), very irritable and emotional, I get cramps for no reason, and my breasts hurt more than usual. The only thing the pill has helped is my skin and I haven't gained or lost weight, it continues to fluctuate between 120-125. F 19 3 weeks

 1  Prevent ovarian cysts & pregnancy From day 1 I have been constantly spotting, never a day where I do not bleed, even just a little bit. "Breakthrough" bleeding as the doctor and PA have called it. I also have noticed I am extremely fatigued, no matter if I get a full 8 hours of sleep at night, I am exhausted whenever I wake up in the morning. I also have nausea, bloating, and bad cramping. The doctor has recommended me to not take the placebo pills, aka withdrawal pills, he is looking to stop my period to see if it will stop the cysts from arising. I have not been back to see him, but have made several phone calls and him and his PA have both assured me that I need to take it for a full three months to get the full benefit of the birth control. After bleeding for almost two months straight, I am pretty much SICK AND TIRED of this. I have considered changing OB's and getting another doctors opinion. Before this, I was not on any kind of birth control due to the severe side effects I had while I had the Mirena. F 24 6 weeks

 4  Birth control, period regulation First 3 months I would get nauseous after taking it other than that I've had no other negative side effects. No weight gain, no mood changes, no decrease in my libido, no sleep or appetite changes. It's helped keep my skin clear and I've also noticed that any body hair (down below) that I may have grows a lot slower now. F 29 4 years

 5  Prescribed to me by doctor as request I like it and my breasts have grown a cup and a half since and its only been 2 weeks. I take it at 10pm at night so I go right to bed so I never have any nausea or any like that. No mood swings really maybe I get teary eyed over sad things but I don't know if that just me or the pill so I can't blame the pill. So far so good, but everyone is different. I would let you know you should take your pill at night before bed. good luck to all of you! :) F 31 2 weeks

 1  Endometriosis Swollen breast, nausea, mood swings, no sexual desire at all! I started levora on 12April and on 19 April I was bleeding, it is now 27 June and I have bled everyday since! My dct told me its normal and if it continues after 2 months come in. Well now they say I need to give the pills another month, but along with the bleeding I am now having stomach pains. Oh and let's not forget the reason I am using this pill to try and help with my pain from the endometriosis well guess what the pain is WORSE! I wake up screaming/crying and damn near falling over b/c the pain is so intense! I HATE this pill and today decided to not take another pill until I see the dct!!! F 35 3 months

 1   Acne, significant weight gain, moodiness, depression, severe anxiety, fatigue, feeling sadness. I've never had acne even as a teenager. Now it's on my back, chest and face. I eat a clean diet and workout 4 days per wk, cardio and weight training yet consistently have gained weight since on Levora. Anxiety was terrible, although no feelings of worry it gave me panic attacks where I was short of breathe with heart racing for almost a week. I ended up in the ER. I would NOT recommend this pill. F 30 8 months

 1  pregnancy prevention Sore breasts, mild acne, weight gain, anger, irritability, nervousness, anxiety, and anger, increased libido! Levora makes me feel rage, and it also makes me break out. My breasts grew one size. I can't wait to get off this pill. I tried YAZ four years ago, and I loved that pill. F 31 3 weeks

 3  BC Within the second week of taking this pill i have been feeling down and overly anxious about little things. Just these last three days i've cried without a clear reason why, just because i was feeling 'sad'. I will continue to use it and see how it goes. I've also been watching what i eat for possible weight gain...and i have been bleeding since taking the pill yet it is barely turning into spotting. Not a good experience but it is my first time on birth control. I'm not a fan of any medication--even if it has to be taken on a daily basis but it has to be done. F 23 2 weeks
