For Birth Control "I began taking Aubra five months ago. For the first three weeks, I suffered from constant nausea, severe headaches, shortness of breath, IBS-like symptoms, emotional instability, and I felt extremely lethargic. After those three weeks, those symptoms disappeared. However, now five months in, I have absolutely no sex drive, my last period lasted 13 days, and I have been in a depressed-like rut for about two months. On the bright side, my boobs got bigger, I have not gained any weight, and my acne has decreased. Since these symptoms are much better than the alternative (getting pregnant), I have decided to continue taking the pill. Once my prescription expires, though, I believe I will be switching to another brand."

For Birth Control "I hate this birth control. First month of taking it, and my face completely broke out like I've never broken out before. My depression and anxiety were off the charts, also, I had a low sex drive. I was not happy with this. Don't take this BC, you'll regret it!"

For Birth Control "I have been using Aubra for a little over a year. I tried the depo shot at first but it did not work for me. With this pill, the only thing I noticed was that my sex drive did decrease, but over time I feel like I wasn’t affected in that way anymore. I have gained weight, but with proper diet, it shouldn’t be a problem. I got my prescription from Planned Parenthood. Each pack is about $40. Depending on if there’s a donor, it can be $30. I just received a package today from the Pill Club, which I am very excited for. They carry Aubra, and for a 12-month supply plus all the other costs, I ended up paying about $75, which is a crazy steal. Do the math for buying individual packs for $40 each plus fees for consultation... hopefully the Pill Club works for me."

For Birth Control "I've been on Aubra for 6 months and have finally decided to go off birth control. The only pro on this birth control is not getting pregnant. Cons: no sex drive, horrible acne before my period, depression, weight gain. I was really hoping this birth control would work because I've had so many problems with other ones. But I can't take the side effects anymore."

For Birth Control "Aubra was okay at first, but then it worsened my depression. Everything seemed so dull to me. It also made me lose my sex drive almost entirely and gave me terrible brain fog. I do not recommend this."
