For Birth Control "I've been taking Azurette 28's since August 7th, 2016, and have been experiencing cramps since the 2nd or 3rd day. They go from being mild with little irritation to being severe. I'm having mood swings as well. I've even noticed that I have gained weight. I had a bad migraine headache over the weekend, I felt so terrible I was throwing up, and I couldn't lay down because my entire skull felt like it was shattering into a million little pieces. I almost had my husband take me to the emergency room. I was on Lutera a few years ago and I didn't experience any of these symptoms. I'm going to ask my doctor to switch me to that. I would never recommend Azurette to anyone. I only wanted to regain control over my periods, otherwise, I wouldn't be on BC."

For Birth Control "Pro: I recommend Azurette. I started on birth control after I would get nauseous for two weeks out of every month. That has been fixed. I've been on other birth controls and say this birth control worked best for me. I've been on it for one year. I haven't had headaches. My sex drive has been great. I haven't lost or gained weight. Con: Occasionally, sex will be uncomfortable. It's not bad enough to switch, because I've had too many problems with other meds."

For Birth Control "I wish I didn't even have to rate this terrible medication. I asked my doctor to put me on a birth control to help with my periods. This birth control has been the absolute worst. I have had every terrible side effect from stomach cramps, severe depression, insane mood swings, nausea, feeling lethargic, I mean... just the worst I've ever felt. And all because of a medication... Yeah, no thanks."

For Birth Control "I was on this pill for 3 months to see if it would regulate my very, very late periods, and it helped right away. I felt like it helped with my appetite in terms of not having one as often, so I ate less = weight loss. It helped my skin as well, would give it a 10, but shortly after taking my pill, I would feel a little nauseous, nothing too bad though."

For Birth Control "Kept me from getting pregnant and was easy to remember to take because of packaging, but it made me nauseous in the morning for the first couple of months."
