"This medicine quite literally ruined my life, to the point I thought I developed severe bipolar. I took it for about 2 years as a late teen, originally for my acne. It did half its job for my skin, but I definitely still got pimples regularly. On the other hand, I developed endometriosis after never having cramps before, had no sexual desire for my long-term boyfriend anymore (we eventually broke up due to this), became extremely angry and depressed, and I got nauseous almost weekly (even after multiple years). I didn’t realize how terribly the medication affected me until after stopping it— the “mental illness” I thought I had developed magically disappeared almost immediately. The only positives I have about this birth control are that it grew my boobs from an A-cup to a C-cup within a month and that I’m not pregnant (but I was still very safe, so I’m not sure I’d accredit that to the medicine). Everyone is different, but I would recommend anything else."

"This is absolutely horrible. It gave me acne that I cannot get rid of and changed me as a person. I cry constantly I’m easily irritable and I’m just not myself anymore. I do not recommend at all."

"I took Tri-Lo-Marzia for 10 months I have PCOS and it didn’t help my symptoms at all and I feel like it made them even worse actually my head hair falling/thinning, new body hair growing, oilier skin. Aside from that I felt extremely depressed all the time and every time I started a new pack the first week I always had raging anger. It regulated my cycle up until the last 3 months when I kept having random spotting then I finally switched pills."
