SERIOUS weight gain: about 25 pounds in one year. VERY moody: started to become withdrawn and was very short tempered. ALWAYS tired: no matter how much sleep I got I could never get enough. I would NEVER EVER recommend this pill. It started to ruin my relationships and not to be too dramatic, but it was slowly starting to ruin my life. It does horrible things to your body. I have been taking birth control for over six years and this is by far the worst I have ever taken!! | Please do not take it!!! | F | 21 | 1 years 1X day | 8/14/2013 | 1 | Reduce heavy period | Nausea, dizziness, mood swing and fuzzy, short tempered and not happy all day, no sex drive, and the worst is the vaginal bleeding and infection happening at the same time. Does anyone know if I could stop taking this pill immediately even at the mid cycle? I don't care about the contraception. | F | 36 | 2 weeks | 4/2/2013 | 1 | Birth control | Feel like I'm pregnant, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, sore boobs, cramps, and bloating. I expected to be somewhat used to this medicine by now because I was on Loestrin and had no funny side effects. This is crazy!! | F | 20 | 7 days 1/20 fe | 10/28/2012 | 1 | birth control | Moody, depressed, very bloated weight gain, tired, | I would not recommend this pill it's horrible! I'm getting off it asap. | F | 25 | 25 days 20 1X day | 4/2/2013 | 1 | birth control | nipple sensitivity, felt bloated all the time, gained weight | Was on Loestrin 24 Fe for about 5 years.. I really liked it but I stopped getting my period which I thought was unhealthy so my doctor put me on this pill. My nipples are extremely sensitive and tender, I always feel bloated and have gained weight. I just stopped taking the pills two days ago and will see how it goes. | F | 20 | 3 months 1X day | 6/3/2012 | 1 | birth control | Worst birth control ever. Have been sick since I started it. I know have hives because I'm allergic to it and not just hives on my skin but deep under my skin and in my gi tract, stomach and it's very painful. I can't move because of the pain. My stomach is all messed up. I'd rather be in labor than all this pain. I have had 2 children one via c section and one naturally. And yes I would rather do that all over than to keep taking this. | F | 29 | 2 weeks | 3/12/2014 | 1 | Birth Control - Ovarian Cyst Preven | First three days was a cake walk, after that, it all went downhill. Started out with spotting (which my Dr. said could happen) but six days later, went into full blown period, which is still going on now. Well over 10 days of a period is not something I am used to. Migraines to the point I cant get out of bed. Nausea to the point of vomiting. Weight gain of almost 10 pounds in three weeks (yeah I exercise 5 days a week and eat healthy and Im not losing an ounce). Horrid mood swings and bouts of crying uncontrollably. Body sweats at night. Restless leg feeling from my waist down at night. Body aches during the day. Abdominal pain that was/is not from cramps. Bloated to the point I had to go buy a pair of "fat" jeans for myself. Probably made my minor depression worse (probably hence the crying). Swelling in both my legs. No sex drive (I feel like a virgin again thanks to that). My breasts ache a lot too. Overall, this pill just sucks. I stopped taking it last night | F | 25 | 3 weeks 1/20 1X day | 3/17/2014 | 1 | birth control | Was on Loestrin for 4 years and loved it. it got idiscontinued.My doc switched me to junel. No period just spotting the first month. Vaginal pain! Extremley tired no matter how much I sleep. All I want to do is eat! Very unhappy with this medicine. | F | 22 | 2 months | 4/4/2014 | 1 | Endomitriosis | I have spotted on this pill more days than not. Over the past month, my sex drive has gone from high to gone. I am so moody and bitchy. I don't feel at all like myself. My poor boyfriend has been so tolerant but admitted he has been worried. Never taking this again. I would rather have horrible periods! | F | 32 | 6 weeks | 4/8/2014 | 1 | Pharmacy ran out of Gildess. | Headache, dizziness, fatigue. | F | 34 | 3 days 1/20 | 4/16/2014 | 1 | birth control | I have experienced many negative side effects from this pill. It started with terrible migraines w/ aura, then came nausea, fatigue, breast tenderness, very irritable, and the worst part..I bled for 18 days straight and now I bleed on and off every couple of days. I also never break out and all of a sudden I'm breaking out and eating everything in sight. My wedding is in 2 months I pray my body is back to normal by then. No more Junel Fe for me!! | F | 24 | 4 months | 1/22/2014 | 1 | birth control | This drug gave me a vaginal infection which I thought was yeast so I used Monistat. After a week, it was worse, which didn't make sense, so I went to the doctor, who said it was BV (bacterial vaginosis). By then it was too late. The bacteria had spread into my bladder, and even though I took all kinds of antibiotics, the bladder inflammation would not go away. I had interstitial cystitis, one of the worst diseases imaginable. Imagine "permanent UTI" and the doctors don't help. Because of the IC, I developed pelvic floor dysfunction and pudendal neuralgia (nerve pain). It was over a year before I figured out what I needed to do to fix my bladder, but by then, it was too late. I have permanent muscle spasm and nerve pain in my pelvic floor. I have lost the ability to run or have sex without pain. I will probably be this way for the rest of my life. It is all thanks to Junel. The people that make money off of this life-ruining POISON deserve to have their lives taken away just l | NEVER EVER EVER TAKE THIS POISON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PAY MORE FOR ANOTHER BRAND. THIS **** WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE. | F | 21 | 1 months 1X day | 1/30/2014 | 1 | Prevent pregnancy | I am very moody. Most days I feel crazy. I'm tired and don't care about anything. My bf must really love me Bc I will cry and freak out for no reason all the time. Does anyone have any suggestions on a better birth control? | F | 26 | 4 days | 2/3/2014 |
