"I have been on Natazia for 5 years. It is wonderful! No side effects, no hormones out of whack, light periods 2-3 days. The only birth control I will ever be on."

"Please be careful when taking this medication. I suffered a stroke at the age of 33 because I was prescribed this medication for heavy periods and cramping."

"Natazia made me moody (teary-eyed for no reason), caused me to have periods ranging from 3 days to 14 days, and caused ocular migraines as frequent as 5 days in a row."

"Was highly recommended this pill by my doctor. I bleed 5 days before my period! It did shorten my period from 7 to 5 days. Will never take this pill again!"

"I took Natazia due to some period irregularities and painful cramps. It did help with the cramps, but after 3 months, I still have occasional light breakthrough bleeding. Other pills cause me terrible nausea, but this one did not give me that side effect. Also, my heavier bleeding days were definitely shortened. There was no increase or decrease in acne or decreased sex drive. However, I think it is causing my hair to shed more than normal. Overall, I will likely stop taking it because the pros don't seem to outweigh the cons. But it's a decent pill option for those who need it for preventing pregnancy."
