For Birth Control "I've been on this pill for about 3-4 months now. I don’t have any side effects. No weight gain, nausea, low sex drive, nothing. I was really nervous to start taking these pills at first, but I literally feel no change from before I started taking them to now. No complaints."

For Birth Control "I switched to this birth control after wanting to see if it’d improve my acne. I experience a lot of nausea, A LOT. No sex drive :( and my cystic acne after 6 months of taking it got pretty bad. I also had random severe abdominal pain. My mood was fine, but overall, it seems there is nothing special about this BC."

For Birth Control "Do not take this Viorele birth control pill! My pharmacist gave me this instead of Kariva, and it made my period go from 3 days to 7 days, horrible cramps, made me super angry with my boyfriend, low sex drive, made me cry, and makes me nauseous. This is terrible. I had taken this before I took Kariva and didn’t realize that birth control is not supposed to make you feel this crazy!"

For Birth Control "I was put on Viorele pill, and overall experience wasn't too bad. I did experience bad mood swings, and that just isn't me. Frequent headaches and no sex drive. The worst part of all... losing my hair! After a year, I started to notice my hair thinning and wondering what the heck was going on. I look back at the side effects, and lo and behold, I see loss of scalp hair. Stopped taking it for a few months now, but will have my gyno switch me to something else."

For Birth Control "I've been on Viorele for the past year and a half. At first, it was great! It got rid of my cramps, it regulated my period, and it worked in respect to preventing pregnancy, but for the past 6 months, I experienced a severe decrease in my libido, almost it was nonexistent. When I did want to have sex, I experienced severe pain, which I didn't experience prior. I was agitated, and my anxiety and depression were worse. I'm now looking for a different birth control."

For Birth Control "This was the first birth control I tried and have been on it for the past two years. I have had no side effects besides a lowered sex drive. It shorted my period and lightened them as well! I have never experienced cramps before, but when I first went on it, I got the worst cramps ever, but that was only for a month and it went back to normal! This also did help me with acne after Accutane, and I did lose weight! I would recommend this to anyone, but everyone's body is different! The only thing that sucks is that it does lower your sex drive by a lot, but if you are not looking for that, then I suggest trying this pill out."

For Birth Control "Took this pill for almost 2 years. I developed severe anxiety on it and 0 sex drive. Another thing, it caused me to have a blood clot in my calf. Please don’t take this!"
