For Birth Control "I was a bit on the edge to start taking this pill because of how poorly it was reviewed. I'm now a couple of months in, and I have no complaints. My mood has stayed as positive as before, and I have had depression before, but no signs of that came back. My sex drive was pretty high before, and is now the same, or even more now that I don't have to worry about getting pregnant. I haven't gained any bloating, or gained weight, but that could be because I exercise and have a minimal decreased appetite since I've been on the pill. My acne has been clearing up as well. The only weight gain I have noticed is that my breasts grew a whole cup size. Nothing but positive effects from Velivet!"

For Birth Control "I have taken it only a month and have experienced bloating, nausea, breast tenderness, fluctuation in appetite, constipation, and I get mad at my boyfriend very easily. Plus, all of these symptoms make me not feel like having sex."

For Birth Control "I've been on this birth control for almost 2 years now. During my first year taking it, it worked well. Did its job (no kids), sex drive was fine, mood was good. I still experienced cramps during my period, nothing too hard. Then, I switched doctors and wasn't able to get any refills for 2 whole months, so I wasn't on birth control. After that, I went on Velivet again, and omg everything changed for the worse! I'm very emotional (sad and moody), experience bloating randomly, and I get very painful cramps randomly throughout the day even when I'm not on my period. During my period, the cramps are way worse! My period is also heavier. I honestly can't wait to switch to a different birth control pill. I'm not sure why there was such a drastic change after going off of Velivet for 2 months. I thought maybe my body was adjusting to the pill again, so I decided to give it a few more months. But it's now been 6 months, and I'm still experiencing the same symptoms."
