For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "This pill has been absolutely amazing. I can truly say that I have had no problems with it. It definitely does it job and does it well. My oily skin has cleared and I have actually lost weight ! I am eating less and it's great. I would definitely recommend this oral contraception for anyone who gas had it rough with other pills.! I do get my period every month so I am thinking about switching to one that I won't get it but other than that I love this pill!"

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I took previfem from August ‘16-October ‘17 for heavy periods and bad cramping. The first month it made me break out like crazy on my forehead, but that cleared up rather quickly into the second month. It made my periods much lighter and eliminated my cramping all together. By the summer of 2017, I had a major shift in my lifestyle. I was no longer in college, where I was on the Crew team for three years, and a new job had started up. With the shift in my lifestyle, my periods became incredibly heavy. Still no cramping, but I was bleeding through super plus tampons after 6 hours. I know it was due to the stressors in my life and my lack of exercise, but my doctor and I have decided to switch over that is better equipped for my lifestyle"

For Birth Control "This birth control has increased acne, and appetite causing me to retain water. My breasts are also sore, and I find that I become nauseous no matter if I take it with food or not."

For Birth Control "I see a lot of negative reviews on this, but Tri-Prev is the only birth control that has ever worked for me. I started it at 21 to regulate my periods because my testosterone levels were too high and my periods were very inconsistent (I was diagnosed with PCOS). I have been on it ever since. Just this year at 30 I'm having to switch because I've begun to breakthrough bleed. I stayed on this for so long because I always had glowing skin, never felt bloated or gained weight and it really levelled my mood. I feel lucky to have had such a good run. Super sad I am having to start my search again for a new one. Having had such an amazing experience, I think it's definitely worth a try, you never know what will work for you!"
