For Birth Control "I was on Mononessa for almost three years and was switched to this pill. I enjoy it ! I didn’t have any side effects and my period isn’t as long and heavy as it was on Mononessa. I had a little dry patch of skin on my face I normally never get. Not sure if it’s from the pill or just the cold weather but I exfoliated and moisturized and it’s gone. My skin did not break out, I didn’t gain weight and I feel fine. It’s always worth a shot to try it because everyone’s body is different."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I’ve been on this birth control for 4 days and that is all I’m giving it, my headaches have been so intense I just cry, I sleep so much more , and I’m always hungry. And even better I started bleeding as soon as I was popped the first pill in my mouth, and I’m talking about heavy bleeding , clots ! Soaking through pads and tampons within a hour or less. Please ladies. Stay away from this ."

For Acne "So, I started Estarylla in May 2020. Previously, I had switched my insurance and did not get a new script to continue what I was taking, which was Blisovi Fe. So I had a lapse of birth control from Jan-May. I wanted to try something that would help my cystic acne. I started this and I'm a wreck. I'm breaking out worse than I did in high school and I'm 26. That's not even the worst of my symptoms. I'm miserably nauseous and having diarrhea most mornings waking up for work. Don't have much of an appetite. My boobs have just recently started hurting and becoming more sensitive. I'm losing a significant amount of hair. I know spotting can occur, but I just finished a random 2 week period and NOW getting to that spotting they talk about. Everyone's joking that I'm pregnant, I took my first pregnancy test and no, I'm not prggo.I'm irrationally emotional more than normal and just feel MISERABLE. I'm taking myself off this tomorrow."

For Acne "Estarylla cleared up my skin. I’ve been on it for about 7 months and I didn’t notice a difference until about 3 or 4 months in. My breakouts are at a minimal now. I tried about 5 other birth control pills before finding this one that finally gave me minimal side effects. I had severe hormonal acne and giant cysts on my chin and neck until taking this."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "Could not say enough bad things about this medicine!!! Abnormal bleeding, oily skin, mood swings, head aches, weight gain, racing heart, shortness of breath, cramping, night sweats and nausea just from taking this pill for less than a month. Do not understand why anyone is even getting prescribed this pill especially after reading all the reviews I’ve read on it. Absolutely ridiculous!!"

• PCOS...

For Ovarian Cysts "I was prescribed this form of BC to help treat my PCOS and irregular periods. I've been taking Estarylla (previously Mononessa) for about 10 years now. To be honest, I think it works very well. My periods are light flow, light cramping and always on time. My acne has always been mild and usually only on my face. I do experience some depression and anxiety but I figure that's just me. It is important to take this at the same time every day for best results. I also recommend drinking plenty of water (because it's great for your body! :)"

For Birth Control "I’ve been on this pill for about a year now. I stopped taking it for awhile and noticed that my mood had lifted and I was overall a happier person. I do think that all birth control pills can make you feel sad and depressed but I think that Estarylla really amplified those feelings. I didn’t find it to clear up my acne and I did gain weight. I would say this pill is average but I’m hoping to find something better."

For Birth Control "Wow these reviews are scary. I’ve been taking this birth control for about 6-7 months and it never affected me that bad. I will admit the first few months you feel a little dull but that’s just because of new hormones in your body. Hair never fell out or anything instead it grew crazy long at least 7 inches. It never affected me in a negative way or made me gain weight, it actually made me lose a few 3 pounds and if anything made me more mature . At the end of the day birth control no matter what brand affects everybody in way different ways but for me this didn’t affect me terribly or anything if anything I was doing amazing on it ."

For Birth Control " I already struggle with depression/anxiety but this birth control made it SO much worse. I couldn’t figure out for the longest time what was wrong with me, so so angry and everyone but yet so sad. I have been feeling like I’m going crazy. So done with this medicine. Never again!!"

For Birth Control "I'm at the Dr now to refill this birth control medication and I couldn't remember the name so I called my pharmacy and then googled it since I was waiting. I can't believe the bad reviews, but everyone's body is different. I've been on this BC for 2 years now, starting my third. I used to break out and I haven't had one pimple since starting this medication. I haven't gained any weight or experienced any type of emotional side effects. I love it and will continued using it."

For Birth Control "I had a negative experience with this pill. I took it for a year, and while it effectively served the purpose of preventing pregnancy, that's the only positive thing I have to say about it. I experienced side effects of depression and suicidal thoughts, anxiety and a panic attack, frequent breakthrough bleeding, breast tenderness, and weight gain of 10 pounds. I am not prone to weight gain and haven't had this issue or emotional issues with the other 2 birth control pills I've taken. I would advise extreme caution in proceeding with taking this pill. I should have read the reviews before I took it."

For Birth Control "I was prescribed Estarylla and it was my first experience with birth control! The first two months were fine. I had a short and lighter period the first month BUT experienced insane emotional distress. I was yelling at my boyfriend, crying over just about anything (I even cried giving a class presentation and I’m not emotional like that AT ALL) I assumed it was just my body adjusting as those extreme mood swings subsided. At the end of the second month I got my period early and decided to finish the pack. I’ve now been bleeding for almost 2 weeks and it is giving me extreme anxiety. I’m constantly paranoid I’m going to get blood clots and that this bleeding is irregular. It goes between what I believe to be spotting to full on needing a tampon. After reading these reviews I have now decided to stop taking this birth control. I gave it two points because I do believe it contributed to clearing up my skin. Please beware!"

"I’ve seen the negative reviews on here, and I have only been on this pill for a short amount of time but my experience has been almost 100% positive. As someone who has struggled with gaining weight, and with anxiety for a very long time I was worried starting birth control. However since starting I have been able to gain and keep on 3 pounds so far and my anxiety has been at an all time low. The only thing I can say is that for about an hour or so after taking it each day I will get slightly nauseous but if I eat before usually I am fine. This pill has been an absolute life saver for me. Every person reacts differently to medication so I can not speak for others but I personally would recommend this pill."

For Birth Control "I started taking Estarylla about a month ago and I had been taking birth control for almost 6 months now but my brand got change I was taking Femynor with no problems at all but about a month ago I experienced every bad bloating, stomach pains, constipation, nausea and lose of appetite. When my period came the symptoms didn’t change. Now on my second month the symptoms are starting to ease. I’m still taking it. And I read about the side affects on the box and nothing I’m experiencing is on the box but reading all these reviews I should talk to my doctor about changing my brand"

For Acne "I am now almost done with my third month of this pill Estarylla and I have seen improvement in my skin but I am still breaking out and lots of scarring! My doctor suggested I switch my pill but I don’t wanna go through another three months of acne. If I wait another month will my acne fully clear?! I need answers"

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "This was my first time getting on the pill. My Dr put me on Estarylla and everything just went downhill from there. I was aware of the side-effects, granted this is my first time being on the pill. But, I have never felt so awful in my life. By the 3rd week, I have hit a wall with depression, so uncomfortably bloated, tons of nausea that never went away and abdominal pains. I finally called and told them what’s up, and they are wanting to switch me to Sprintec. Everyone’s body’s are different, but Estarylla made me feel the lowest of lows."

For Birth Control "I started this birth control Estarylla after I got my IUD out. I hated the IUD so after 2 years I got it removed. I wanted a birth control that helped with acne because I have PCOS and with that comes stupid hormonal acne :( I am on month 3 of Estarylla and I think I’m starting to hate it. First 2 months were good, it actually helped my acne. Now, on my 2nd week of the pack my chin broke out so bad! My boobs are sore and I’m super depressed. I don’t take any other meds so I know it has to be this birth control. I also get nauseous. Honestly I think the side effects outweigh the benefits!! Everyone’s different but for myself I do not recommend this med."

For Birth Control "I've been on it for 3 years with 0 side effects. It's effective in that I've never become pregnant. I haven't experienced mood swings like everyone else posted about. I never get breakouts. The only reason I've gained 10 lbs in the last 3 years is from crossfit and it was muscle. I have absolutely no complaints with Estarylla."

For Acne "This worked WONDERS for my skin. I used to have bad cystic acne and tried everything in the book (except birth control) - my dermatologist recommended it and I have maybe had 2 breakouts in 8 months and my skin is just prettier. I have gained a substantial amount of weight since taking it but I am not sure if that is the pill or I am just getting older and my metabolism is slowing. If you struggle with acne cysts I HIGHLY recommend this pill."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I was put on this Estarylla birth control pill after a long 2 month period and ovarian cyst . It stopped my period almost immediately! I’ve been on Estarylla For three months now and the worst side effect I’ve experienced is weight gain. My period is also more heavy and painful than usual but honestly I will take that over two months of non-stop bleeding ."

For Birth Control "I started this pill exactly 1 month ago and I absolutely love it. I've been on birth contol twice before and Estarylla is definitely my favorite one. The only side effect I’ve had is being emotional towards boyfriend & friends, nothing extreme. I haven’t noticed any weight gain or loss. I see everyone is having different reactions to this pill but it totally works for me!"

For Birth Control "I have been on this pill for about 8 months now, and I go on here and read these reviews and wonder where people are getting this from. I understand everyone's body is different, and reacts differently to different pills. For me, this pill cleared almost all my acne, I haven't gained weight, my super painful cramps have almost vanished, my flow isn't as heavy, the only real bad side effect I have noticed is the mood swings, but even those are not that bad. It's a great pill."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I was a little excited to say the least but nervous since I haven’t been on any medications since my tubal ligation 6 years prior. Within the first few weeks I was already bleeding. I bled for 9 weeks straight. It was miserable and then if to make things worse, I wanted to take out everyone around me for about 5 weeks. I had extreme anger issues, depression, my skin was breaking out. Talked to my doctor many times and was told to give it a little time to see how I adjusted. After 6 months I decided I couldn’t take it anymore. I would have times that were okay but I often felt like rubbish on this pill. The last straw was when I started a new packet of pills. I was fine the first week, started bleeding mid 2nd week and by the third week I was passing large blood clots for days and then I got my period the 4th week. This pill isn’t for me and now I’m starting something new. Hoping for better results!!"

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "Insurance wouldn't cover the usual so I was given this one. Well only one week and I feel crazed. Heart rate off, breathing labored, sweats, fatigued but can't sleep, super restless. And on day 7 I said - its this pill. Mind you also bleeding on it. Never have I ever had side effects from birth control but this one makes me just feel off. Looked up anxiety and boom all my symptoms. This pill made me super anxious. I am done. No more for me."
