Daily stomach aches. Occasional heavy spotting. Missed period after first month. Constipated causing cramps. Acne seems to be worse than before. | Would not recommend.

I'm sure after a few months it will regulate but I need this 14+ day period to end now | F | 18 | 2 weeks | 5/31/2015 | 1 | Birth control | first three weeks I felt fine and normal but then when I got my refill to start my next three weeks I got my period and it was lighter at first which I liked, but then after 7 days it got heavier than ever and I had terrible stomach pains, I've now had this irritating period for almost two weeks which has never ever happened to me. Ive never had anxiety problems until I started taking this pill, it made me so emotional and made me fight with my boyfriend over the dumbest things, I feel down in the dumps all day long and at night I am exhausted but I can't fall asleep no matter what I do. I also believe this pill is what caused me to have low thyroid problems and now I am taking medication for that also. This pill has made my life a living hell. | I do not recommend this birth control at all. | F | 17 | 1 months | 7/31/2015 | 1 | The first month was hell, enough to make me stop wanting to take it. I was emotional, depressed, had so much anxiety and confusion and I was in school so that was not what I needed at that time. The first month taking it I was spotting an then got my first period on it and I had such severe chest pains it was unbearable. I was moody and it was just a nightmare. I would not suggest this birth control ever | F | 23 | 1 months | 8/31/2015 | 1 | Dismennoreah | Heart palpitations, CONSTANT spotting, no sex drive, repulsed to be touched, cant get wet, completely withdrawn, fatigued, dont enjoy anything anymore. | I cant find any joy in anything anymore. I hate my boyfriend of 4 years. I scream at him constantly. I bleed more than I don't on these pills. The brown pills cause a pleasant light period. The second week of yellow brings HELL. All I want to do is sleep. Foul odor. Constant feeling of yeast infection. Got BV (Bacterial Vaginosis) from this pill. | F | 19 | 1 years | 9/15/2015 | 1 | Heavy Periods | Words can't describe how disappointed I am with this birth control. I'm a pretty big skeptic of birth control (I feel like it is going to be our generation's cigarettes in about 20 years when we all have cancer), but I digress. I hadn't been taking anything for a few months, but had extremely heavy periods each month that were almost unbearable. My gyno assured me that Junel Fe was my solution and would reduce my periods down to 2 days a week per month. Looking back that was the funniest joke I've ever heard. I've had the pre-period brown spotting all month now except it is a little heavier than spotting forcing me to wear liners, pads, and tampons ALL MONTH. I've been taking it at the same time every night too so there is really no excuse for it being this crazy. On top of this it has put me in the worst mood ever and has made me feel both physically and emotionally sick almost every day. I got in the WORST fight I have ever been in with my boyfriend over absolutely nothing and if you | It is the worst birth control ever. Wish I didn't have to finish the pack. | F | 24 | 16 days 1 pill 1X day | 7/28/2015 | 1 | Help to regulate heavy periods | Irritable, mood swings, depressed, stomach cramps, headaches, spotting | Cannot believe that in 8 short days I feel this awful!!! I will not take another dose of this devil medicine! The final straw was today when i went into a screaming fit with my husband over the tiniest thing. I am NEVER like that. I don't feel like myself, at all. I am exhausted and feel lethargic. I have stomach pain and headaches and have not had a full night sleep since starting it. I really had hoped this would work, but I cannot be on this even one more day. Do NOT recommend!!!! | F | 40 | 8 days | 7/21/2015 | 1 | Acne, pregnancy prevention | Irregular period including two in one month and then none at all during the second month, extreme irritability, depressed feeling, extreme anxiety, digestive issues, decrease in sex drive, inability to focus. | Nearly destroyed my otherwise loving relationship. Be careful when picking your birth control medication. | F | 19 | 2 months 20 | 9/22/2015 | 1 | Pcos, cysts on ovaries, heavy cycle | Mood swings, weight gain, burning sensation in vulvar area at least once per month for a duration of 7days or more. Increased acne, and blurred vision. | I started take Junel when I was diagnosed with pcos, it came highly recommended by my obgyn. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who experience these symptoms. I thought there was something really wrong with me. Will be switching to a different birth control after this pack is complete. | F | 29 | 10 days | 9/28/2015 | 1 | Birth control | Mood swings, bloating, neverousness, blurred vision, dizziness, acne, loss of appetite, and weight gain. | I was on beyaz a few years before, but my doctor prescribed this, because of the price. I experienced every side affect at various times while taking this. It got to the point that I had to completely stop taking it, because I felt so horrible all the time. I saw an immediate difference. I think it just wasn't the pill for me. | F | 3 months | 1/9/2016 | 1 | obgyn recommended it | Stomach pain, anxious. Very nervous inside. Fatigue | Never should have been on the market! Worst birth control ever! WARNING DO NOT TAKE! | F | 31 | 4 days | 4/29/2016 | 1 | Birth control | This BC is Terrible. Horrible stomac cramps, constant headaches, extremely tired all the time, ridiculous mood swings, super emotional, boobs are always sore and huge, weight gain, anxious, anxiety when through the roof. People say I'm hard to be around, low sex drive, Got pregnant and miscarried on this pill. Do not recommend this. Constipated constantly. | F | 34 | 4 months Junel 21 | 8/30/2016 | 1 | Protection | The worst acne of my life!! | F | 22 | 1 years 30 | 10/11/2016 | 2 | periods/skin/sex | weight gain, increased appetite, swollen breasts, emotional, trouble sleeping, ACNE (bacne and face breakouts), hair loss | 1 mg 1X day | 12/6/2012 | 1 | Birth Control | Acne, Irritability, Mood swings, Anxiety, OCD, Depression, Suicidal thoughts, Lighter periods, nausea | I switch from Viorele because of the everyday constant nausea. This has helped the nausea, but instead of every day mild nausea, I sometimes get intense nausea about once or twice a month. My periods were nonexistent for the first 5 months, and then became very light, and are now normalizing for a whole week, moderate periods. As for my mood. I went from having irritability that I thought was me just being a naggy person, to extreme anxiety andOCD, to full on mood swings that could be flipped like a switch. I became overly sensitive and cry because of everything. I used to never cry, ever. Now, I am insanely depressed. I am having daily suicidal thoughts because of simple things such as not wanting to attend an event. I am having extreme social anxiety, when I am generally an outgoing person. And to top everything off, this cause my skin to break out. I know it is because of the BC because my chin has been nonstop breaking out for the past 8 months, which is caused by hormones. The acne has increased my social anxiety. I have also been having horrible cramps that come and go every few minutes. Besides from the absence of my period, which is now becoming a normal thing again, it is not worth it anymore. | 19 | 10 months 1X day | 10/16/2016 | 1 | This pill literally makes me want to die all the time. I do not recommend to be honest. I'd rather get pregnant than ever take this. | 0 days 1X day | 4/20/2022 |
