For Birth Control "I was on Amethia Lo and then Camrese Lo for about a year. This pill made me so irritated all the time. It seemed to get worse the longer I was on it, too. I liked not having a period, but I would randomly spot or sometimes even just have a period anyway, so it wasn’t even effective at stopping my periods all the time. I also went through a phase where my breasts hurt badly, which I’m assuming is because of this BC. But the main thing is that I’m usually a mellow person, and this had me so angry I didn’t recognize myself anymore. Once I went off of it, I felt normal again."

For Birth Control "I've been taking CamreseLo for about a month now, and I have to say these comments made me feel a little better. Since taking this pill, my boobs have been hurting extremely bad, I've had cravings like a mad woman, been depressed, and I have no sex drive at all. I've also lost confidence in myself (my body), probably because of the weight gain. I also cannot go to the bathroom more than once a week now (I used to go once a day... ya know), so that stinks :( On the bright side, it does its job of preventing pregnancy, but I don't think it's worth the effects."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I was prescribed this pill because as I get older my periods have gotten worse. Constant pelvic pain, heavy bleeding, etc. I've had a tubal ligation, so I was frustrated when my doctor recommended this, but I figured I'd give it a try. A couple of things I do like about it are that it cleared up my skin and my breast size has increased. With that said, my breasts are constantly sore, which is annoying. I have been on it for 6 weeks, and in that time I have gained 8 lbs. The worst thing about this pill is that I have bled every day for 6 straight weeks. I was told to start it on Sunday even if it was the first day of my period, which it was. My periods are typically heavy but only last about 5 days. I bled heavily for 12 days and have had spotting, or more, every day since with no end in sight. I understand that this can be common during the first few months, but it is incredibly frustrating. It's heavy enough that I have to use a tampon on most days. Plus, I have cramps all the time now."
