 3  Avoid Pregnancy Nausea first month awful, nausea when lying in bed, pain when inserting tampon, low sex drive, vaginal tearing, out of control emotions. Im not sure if this is because of Trivora but every time I try to have intercourse I rip at the back of my vagina, went to gyno, she said everything with me is fine (not an STD etc). Hoping to switch birth controls soon. F 19 1 years

 1  Birth Conrol Fast Weight Gain, Loss of Sex Drive, Mood Swings I was on Trivora for about 6 weeks when I noticed my clothes no longer fit right. I was worried and started working out & dieting religiously. 3 months later I'm 22 pounds heavier and I can't lose any of the weight. I've been off Trivora for 8 days now and I would never recommend this pill to another person. I spoke with my pharmacist and she said that she's only heard bad things about this one too. F 30 4 months

 2  prevent pregnancy very emotional, anxiety and easily irritated I have been taking Trivora for about two years now and the side effects are getting worse. I feel like a changed person and I get very emotional and irritated with the small little things. I also get anxiety and cry for no reason. I do like the pill because of the short lighter periods but I think it is time to switch. F 21 2 years

 2  regulate cycle very emotional, feelings of hopelessness, break-thru bleeding for the entire month, bloating I was on these pill a few years ago, and I remember having feelings of sadness. I felt a little better after reading the responses on this website, this makes me feel less alone. I don't think I can continue taking these pills. F 33 2 months

 3  Regulate my cycle I totally lost my sex drive. I had absolutely no desire to do anything. I just asked to change my birth control- I start a new one today, we'll see how this works out. Other than losing sex drive, I didn't start my cycle on the day of the "period pills". I didn't start for almost a week after I started a new set, so I did wonder if I could be pregnant. All my other birth control pills, I normally started a day or two after taking the period pills. F 31 60 days

 5  pregnancy prevention. during the first month of taking it i got moody. but that was definitely temporary and my mood actually got a lot better after the first month or two. i get slightly bloated during the third week of each pack. my sex drive is up and down, but mostly increased. i love trivora!. i have very light periods and my mind is completely at ease about pregnancy. F 18 8 months

 2  birth control acne, mood swings, cramps, fatigue I have not had acne breakouts since my early 20s, and now I am all of a sudden getting bad breakouts on my neck and jaw line. I have also experienced mood swings and mild depression. Additionally, I am experiencing cramping. On the positive side, I guess, my appetite seems slightly suppressed so I have experienced a slight weight loss. The acne is the least tolerable side effect as prior to taking Trivora I had a clear complexion. F 31 4 months

 1  Birth control cramps,breast tenderness, nausea, and extremely moody. I thought I was the only one that had these problems with this pill. My doc put me on these because it is what my insurance covers. I had been on others before and Orthro Tri made me crazy. I have tried it all. I was fine at first. It has been the last 2 years where I have felt like I have lost my mind. It is the same time every single month! When I finish up the white pills and go to the pink. I blow up at everything! My husband and I just had a fight about something stupid and I came on here to look up information. I am calling my doctor and switching. I can;t stand feeling insane!! F 29 4 years

 1  BC Pill Anxiety, Depression, WEIGHT GAIN (although the gynecologist acted like that was impossible BULL SHIT!) Fatigue, Nausea Stop believing the hype the pharmaceutical companies pump out to you. BC pills are far from healthy and are not the same as the hormones circulating in your body. I had to go through hell to find that out. The Doctors are clueless and the pharmaceutical companies laugh all the way to the bank. Condoms and some common sense go a long way when compared to this shit.... F 25 1 years

 2  birth control loss of sex drive, weaker orgasms, fatigue, irritability I just feel like I am not the same person. My insurance company stopped carrying the name brand Tri-Levelen and automatically switched me to Trivora. I took them for 3 months thinking that this was pregnancy related side effect but the side effects are only getting worse not better. I have called my insurance company to see if I can make a switch! F 29 3 months

 2  prevent pregnancy acne,decrease in appetite(which explains the weight loss), depression, mood swing, decrease libido' but on the plus side no cramps and shorter periods!!! Wow all this time I was trying to figure out what was wrong with me and thought that it was after pregnancy effects had something to do with the side effects but reading the other comments I finally found the culprit. This pill should be a last resort. F 32 1 years

 2  BC, cycle regulation, acne weight gain, bloating I gained about 20 pounds during the nine months I took this pill even though I didn't change my eating habits or exercise routine. And no matter what I did, I could not get rid of it. It was really frustrating. I've been off it for almost a month now and while I haven't lost any of the weight yet, I do feel less bloated. F 22 9 months

 1  acne EXTREME weight gain, depression, acne, mood swings My sixteen year old daughter was put on Trivora to help clear up her acne. Within 6 months she gained 23 pounds, her acne became worse, and she fought mood swings and depression. She felt like her body was " just not right." We had her tested for other conditions not realizing it was related to the pill--but it all was. She is now off of it and is feeling much better. After the experience we have had, I would not recommend this pill to anyone. F 16 6 days
