For Birth Control "I switched from a tri phasic pill to Blisovi, and I have been very pleased. I have not experienced any negative side effects such as spotting or weight gain. My period came on the third day of the placebo pill and lasted less then 3 days. My best advice is that everyone is different. I was very discouraged when I read some of these reviews, but it all turned out okay!"

For Birth Control "This is the worst pill that has ever happened to me. Do NOT take this pill. I am 31 years old and never in my life have written a review but this pill gave me the WORST panic attacks where I thought I was going crazy, basically made me almost suicidal thinking I needed to be medicated for anxiety. I got off it last week and 2 days later!!! felt like a new person. Beware!! This birth control is so dangerous and should be taken off market in my opinion! Was the worst month of my life."

For Birth Control "My ob/gyn prescribed Blisovi as an alternative to orthotricyclen lo, which I LOVED. She said all of her patients love it and I would too. In one week, I woke up from a panic attack that was so severe I thought I was having a heart attack. My anxiety was so easily triggered while on this, I had heart palpitations and weird breathing even if I thought of something mildly uncomfortable. My gyno said birth control pill don’t cause anxiety and that me and all of the people who said they had issues on internet are wrong, since “no one I've ever given it to has had any issues”. She said all progesterones are the same and that nothing would be different unless I control my anxiety because *that* was the problem. I got a 2nd opinion today and was told that the progesterone in Blisovi is different than Orthotricyclen Lo and that people react differently to each type of hormone. Don’t let your gyno bully you into thinking you have to take what they gave you or nothing at all."

For Birth Control "This was my first birth control and I had a horrible experience. The first few days were fine and then all of a sudden my whole face and chest broke out. I’ve always had acne but this was next level acne that didn’t go away. I also experienced horrible anxiety and nausea. I was constantly nervous and sometimes the anxiety and nausea would wake me up at night for hours at a time. I have a history of anxiety so maybe I’m more prone to having panic attacks but before going on this medication my anxiety was under control and I had no panic attacks a few months prior. A few days after stopping the medication my acne cleared, I gained back my appetite, and I was no longer have panic attacks. Everyone’s experience was different but mine was very bad with his medication."

For Birth Control "I’m surprised to see all the negative reviews! Before Blisovi, I was on a name brand BC and didn’t like it at all. My heavy periods persisted. Since switching to Blisovi (thanks, insurance company), my periods have completely stopped, and I’ve had zero negative side effects. Also, it’s VERY effective."

For Birth Control "THE WORST!!! PLEASE RUN AWAY FROM THIS PILL!! I took this BC for about 7 months and on the 7th month I began to feel crazy!!! I began to get severe depression and anxiety! I also would get sudden dark and weird thoughts. This medication made me feel like a complete psychopath! I’m a happy and cool person but this medication made me feel so irritable. I was angry, I couldn’t sleep and would wake up in the middle of the night. My panic attacks would have me at the most random places crying and begging God to save me. WHATEVER YOU DO AVOID THIS MEDICATION!!!!"

For Birth Control "This is a HORRIBLE drug. I’ve been on it for three weeks, but today was my LAST time to take one of these pills. I will never take another one. I have experienced the following: — extreme tiredness, sluggishness, and loss of motivation — anxiety and twitchy muscles — cramps and spotting — increased hunger and weight gain despite exercising and mostly clean eating — increased time for eyes to focus — decreased libido — heart palpitations — general malaise/feelings of being unwell Blisovi 24 FE is NOT good for your body or your mind. I am very regretful that I let myself ingest this stuff. Now I am quitting cold-turkey at the end of the third week, hoping that my body will get back to normal soon. Taking this pill was a gigantic mistake."

For Birth Control "SO happy I read these reviews! I was switched onto Blisovi after my beloved Gildess went out of production. Within the first few months, I noticed a massive weight gain (15-20 pounds) that has been IMPOSSIBLE to get off with diet & exercise. My anxiety has been thru the roof, I bloat the second I so much as look at salt, sleep is on & off, my breasts can get EXTREMELY tender & I no longer get my period at all but experience GOD AWFUL cramping & random spotting. I also have a thyroid condition (borderline Hashimoto's) & this has mucked up my head and my mood/depression like crazy. Some days, it's impossible to get out of bed & my energy is GONE by 2pm. I'm in my first year of marriage & I've been a miserable fat wench thanks to Blisovi."

For Birth Control "Was on the Gildess brand for almost a year and LOVED it! Went to the pharmacy to pick it up and they gave me Blisovi instead saying that it is the same exact thing. Its one month latter and I HATE it! My breast have shrunk and have gained weight in my stomach which is the last thing a girl wants! I have been having stomach problems and getting bad acne breakouts all over! It is far from the same thing I took before, glad to see I am not the only one having problems. Calling my doctor to have it switched!"

For Birth Control "I have been on this birth control for about 4 months now. It is the worst pill I have ever taken. The only positive thing about it is my periods last maybe 4 days and are very light. The negatives... I can't control my acne breakouts.. I have NO sex drive.. I have constant mood swings.. I feel like I'm a teenager again. I also have headaches and I have trouble staying asleep at night. It just makes me feel NOT MYSELF. I made an appointment with my gyno for a visit. I am never using this birth control again. I thought I was crazy but I read other reviews and I guess I have a lot in common with many others that have taken this pill before. Its horrible! I am grateful for those people that it helps but this is definitely not the pill for me."

For Birth Control "I love this stuff. I had switched from lo loestrin bc of price but really glad I did. My skin has been perfect ever since I started taking it. When I was taking loloestrin it made me have red bumpyness around my chin but once I started taking this it went away immediately and my skin has looked so good ever since. I haven’t had any bad experiences besides my breasts hurting (and they got bigger which I'm happy about). Some reviews said they got headaches/nausea/weight gain/bad moods but I haven’t experienced any of that. My periods haven’t been bad either, no heavier than what they were when not on birth control. Works super well for me!"

For Birth Control "I have taken Lomedia for years and have absolutely loved it. When I went to my pharmacy a week ago to pick up my prescription they told me that Lomedia had been suddenly discontinued and so they had given me Blisovi. She explained that it's suppose to be made by the same company as Lomedia and is SUPPOSED to be the same exact ingredients. THAT CANNOT BE TRUE. I have had no issues with my periods for years and now I am bleeding heavily, am very bloated and my face is suddenly breaking out. I do not believe it's the same pill, something is different. I do not recommend this pill."

For Birth Control "If I could give this pill 0, I WOULD. IT IS H O R R I B L E. I started my second pack on Sunday, but I stop yesterday, I do not care that that probably is not the way to stop BC but I couldn't take it anymore, I've gain around 15lbs (I was on Junel before, which made me a little bloated) but this, THIS STUPID PILL is making me so so so bloated it's not even worth it. Same symptoms as everyone in this reviews I was reading. It's crazy but I had all of the things you are all describing and never thought it could be the pill. I work out 5 x to 6 x a week religiously, I eat super healthy and I'm still gaining weight. Not to mention I was tired ALL the time, and I'm normally very active and awake. Also, no period. AT ALL. NOT GOOD."

For Birth Control "I was in Lomedia 24 FE, loved it! Well for some unknown reason you can find it anymore and no one knows why! The Dr knows nothing about it being discontinued, the pharmacy just says "our manufacturer can't get it, but we don't know why". Google has no answers, and I thought google knew on EVERYTHING! They switch my prescription to this Blisovi 24 fe, it sucks! Gained weight, that won't come off but worse than that - I spot ALL the time, I may have two periods a month. I never know what to expect each day! I've been on it for a year now, and have had 2 normal periods. The rest are heavy, last longer than it should, stop one day and then begin again a week later - I HATE IT!!! Bring Lomedia 24 fe back - PLEASE!!!!"

For Birth Control "I started taking birth control at 17 due to a genetic condition I have (Familial Mediterranean Fever). Since I was 15-16, every month my period (the estrogen rise and drop) would trigger an episode. I did my research and got on birth control to stop my periods and since then (I am almost 19) I RARELY experience episodes. Overall, birth control has completely changed my life for the better. Yet, aside from the fact that birth control has prevented my episodes for the most part, I experienced extreme depression, anxiety, and disassociation (brain fog, forgetfulness) the first three months I was on it. Over the course of those three months, it gradually got better. I am no longer depressed, forgetful, or disassociated, but I do experience mood swings, outbursts, occasional anxiety, and I cry very very easily. I have noticed that recently my emotions have gotten worse and I've been on this for a year and a half. I may speak with my doctor, but the pros weigh out the cons."

For Birth Control "One day picking up my prescription I noticed the bag said "different name same drug" that couldn't have been more wrong. After starting this pill I gained 10lbs, on my smaller frame it's insanely noticeable to the point I'm afraid someone will ask if I'm pregnant. Went up 2 pant sizes which is completely out of character for me. Not only was I am emotion mess during my period but all the other days as well. Tired and fatigued constantly. Not good at all, terrible experience. Absolutely had to switch."

For Birth Control "So glad I read these. I've gained 15 lbs in the past 6 months without a lifestyle change. Only difference was this BC. I thought I was crazy. I was getting super depressed about the weight. I workout daily and eat really well. Can't wait to switch and feel normal again"

For Birth Control "These reviews are saving my life. My moods have been the ABSOLUTE WORST since starting Blisovi back in December. I have said things I never ever would have said, I snap say people, I cry at every little thing. My poor friends have been on the receiving end of all of this. I'll be surprised if they're still my friends. I feel like absolute garbage. I also take medication for migraines, which also happens to be an anti-depressant, so I wonder if these two medications are not working well together? I'm calling my OBGYN tomorrow to get off of this medication. I can't deal with this. I want to be myself again."

I don't think it's gonna ever end and sex is completely out of the question! I feel like a crazy person! Mad at the world and can't stand myself! I'm only on my first week second month in!"

For Birth Control "I've been on every generic for Loestrin under the sun and NEVER experienced bad side effects. Since I never had issues with other generics it took me a while to figure out that this birth control was causing my issues. I got a bad yeast infection after taking this and became sensitive to getting yeast infections (despite that I never had one in my life before this). I also struggled with acne in the "hormonal" region on my chin line and cheek area. Nothing would help the acne. I haven't encountered acne since my teens and had forgotten how awful and embarrassing it is. I switched back to Microgestin after talking to my GYN and realizing Blisovi was the culprit and my skin is already clearing up. Avoid taking this if you can."

For Birth Control "This birth control is the absolute WORST!! I got this prescription for my irregular periods and it’s made it WORSE. I have history with depression and it completely triggered it again. I would wake up crying and picking fights with my boyfriend all the time. Not only that, but my sex drive IS GONE. Me and my bf haven’t had sex in almost TWO MONTHS because 1) my libido is at an all time LOW 2) my self esteem is at 0 3) I feel tired all the time. Do not take this pill."

For Birth Control "I started on this BC Blisovi 24 Fe after having my 3rd child. She’s a year old and within the last year I have developed severe anxiety, depression, outbursts and mood swings. To the point I feel like I’m going crazy and I can’t get a grip. I’ve been so up and down. I had no idea why I felt like this until I stopped taking it for a week and a half then started back and all my symptoms came back. It’s taken a toll on my kids, my marriage and myself as I kept thinking I wasn’t worthy of being a wife, mom and I just didn’t want to be here! I’m so glad I figured out it was the birth control making me feel this way cause I have been on a down hill spiral!!"

For Birth Control "I’ve been on this BC for a year now . Everything started out what seemed to be okay . Then things slowly started to get worse . My mood swing had changed tremendously , I had no motivation to do anything . I had never had depression in-till I tock this BC along with panic attacks . I also seemed to lose all sex drive and I’m only 22 . I don’t recommend taking this BC . I didn’t do me any favors what so ever ."
