 3  Stop prolong bleeding & pregnancy I got prescribed Junel Fe 1.5/30 to stop my prolong bleeding from the depo shot that I only took one dose of. I began bleeding February 4th up until April 22. My doctor had me take two pills a day for a week to stop the bleeding which it did. And from then I took one pill a day. I got my period again may 2 and bled until May 8th and have been spotting on and off, then I got my period again may 16th... I thought that this pill was supposed to make your periods lighter and shorter. Cramping isn’t horrible. I don’t breakout I never do. Doesn’t mess with my mood or anything. It just sucks because my sex life has been ruined from the shot and i thought that this pill would make the whole bleeding stop. Ive only been on it for a month so I’ll give it some time... F 19 1 months

 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

 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

 1  Birth control The only thing that could make this any worse was if I got pregnant. Heavier period, more cramping, borderline psychotic mood swings, anxiety, depression, no sex drive, no sleeping, shortness of breath. F 29 3 months

 1  hormone regulation Started on Junel as substitution for Gildess and it was okay until I started bleeding again. The medication no longer has any effect on me. I currently have a heavy flow that has lasted for the past week and a half, and moderate cramping. Hoping to return to Gildess or Microgestin Fe very soon--at least they have worked consistently in the past. F 25 2 weeks

 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  Yes I had really bad lower abdominal cramps, heavy bleeding & A LOT of clots. My period also has lasted a lot longer. I got this from a pharmacy and Junel was supposed to be the same as Microgestin 1/20. It was definitely not! I went back to the place where I got Microgestin and after a day of taking it, I already feel better after weeks feeling like crap. F 32 4 weeks

 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
