For Birth Control "I used to take the one that came in a green box with little to no issue. Then it started coming in a pink box. Okay... this is where I had an issue. At first, 3-4 months I was not happy. Depressive episodes, nausea, mild headaches. But after those months, (now a year and a half) I'm back to normal. Regular bloating when on my period, headaches when on my period where before it was sporadic, no nausea. It does suck at first. If you're willing to wait it out however long your body takes to adjust, I recommend it."

For Birth Control "I have been on Isibloom for a little over a year. In the beginning, I experienced mild side effects such as mood swings and nausea, but it eventually went away around month 3, and my period became shorter with little to no cramping. However, around month 11, I began to experience some of the worst stomach pain and nausea that I have ever had. I was unable to keep any food down, had a very low appetite, and was extremely depressed and unmotivated. As time went on, I started to have severe headaches, inability to focus, repeated UTI infections, and an increase in weight gain, along with all of my nausea and sharp stomach pains. In addition to all of these side effects, I would frequently cry for no reason, have extremely heightened anxiety, and severe changes in mood. If you want to be on a pill that makes you feel as if you’re going insane, Isibloom is for you."

For Birth Control "I joined the pill club, and this is the birth control they chose for me. I'm 23, under 5'3" and around 120 lbs. Almost every day, I had uncontrollable nausea, as someone who commutes 45 minutes to work every day, I was having to pull off the road multiple times during the month because I was dry-heaving from the nausea. Along with that, I was also experiencing a lot of pain in my stomach and abdomen. If I wasn't having stomach pain or nausea, I was having blinding headaches that made working very hard. There were some instances when I was dealing with all three at once, and it was debilitating. I didn't have an appetite, and the thought of eating just made me more nauseous. After this point, I consulted a doctor and will no longer be using this brand of birth control. While I would not recommend this birth control to anyone, each woman is different, as you can see from other reviews. I would suggest consulting a doctor before trying this birth control to see if it is the right fit for you."

For Birth Control "I've been taking Isibloom for about 2 and 1/2 months, and after today, I kind of put two and two together and realized I'm having a lot of symptoms from this birth control. I have been overly emotional and could cry at the drop of a hat, I'm more irritable and aggressive, I'm having hot flashes, I'm getting bad headaches and migraines, which I haven't had a migraine in almost a year, and I'm also having a harder time reaching an orgasm and am not getting wet. Today, I broke down hysterical at work and had to leave early! My boyfriend and my mom had a talk about what's been going on with me, and they both came to the conclusion that they think it's the birth control. So, I just sat down and looked up the side effects and this is definitely the problem, and I need to get on something different ASAP! But please do remember, everybody is different!"

For Birth Control "I’ve been taking Isibloom for over a month now. I have constant nausea throughout the day. Anything sad makes me cry, it’s definitely affected my emotions. I’ve had one period so far, and my cycle was longer this time around. My cramps were unbearable-something I didn’t deal with before. Headaches are also a constant thing since taking this birth control. I want to give it a chance to see if my body adjusts to it, but it’s definitely been a struggle so far."

For Birth Control "At first, I’ve been taking Cyred EQ, which I love because the side effects were minimal and it did its job well, but after 3 months, my carrier put me on Isibloom (another generic, supposedly the same actives and strengths), and I’ve been taking it for about 2 weeks, and I’ve been spotting nonstop ever since I started taking it. I also have a lot of fatigue, headaches, and cramps. I’m gonna try to get a better brand ASAP. I hate Isibloom so much, and the taste of the pill makes me gag every time I have to take it because it’s too overpowering."

For Birth Control "Gave me heart palpitations any time I tried to drink coffee. I also can’t take ibuprofen with it. Gave me constant headaches, and it’s just totally not worth it."
