"Effective for birth control and less painful periods, but holy moly, no, no, no on depression and acne. I've been depressed before, but this birth control made me have thoughts of suicide for the first time in my whole life. I felt like crying for no reason every day, I thought life would be better for everyone if I weren't here anymore... I stopped taking it for 2 weeks, and for the first time in months, I feel like myself again. I feel like my head isn't on sideways, and I feel better. More energy, happier, no crying... My face broke out like crazy, and I've always had normal skin. Not worth it for me. I'd rather take a few days off every month due to painful cramps than be crazy and pimply."

"On Chateal for endometriosis and my sex drive disappeared, my acne exploded, and I normally have clear skin. I have diarrhea all the time, every day, and my boobs are constantly sore. Not pregnant, but I'm only on month two. I want to change, but Planned Parenthood in my state doesn't offer free or cost-effective appointments, so I'll be trapped taking this for a while."

"I started Chateal four months ago to stop endometriosis pain. It does the job, all I have is minor bloating and cramping occasionally. However, it has worsened my depression and made me irritable and mean. I get panic attacks too now, which never happened before. It's changed my personality. It makes me incredibly nauseous, and my appetite has lessened as well. I also get acne on my chest and back, which is new as well. Other than the lack of period pain, this pill has been a horrible experience."

"Began July 2019 for severe period pains. My period was always 4 days and very regular. But my first day of bleeding came with severe cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, and pain in my rectum. I could not do anything for 18-22 hours. I decided to try birth control. PP gave me a free year supply of Chateal. No mood swings or depression, and my skin is beautiful. And my cramps - gone! I am taking the pills non-stop because I'm terrified of cramps returning. One con - I have not stopped bleeding since I began. But the last two months have only been spotting. In the first few months, I did experience minimal cramping and heavier bleeding... but I could still walk, talk, and work finally! This has been life-changing. I may get a cramp here or there, but nothing like before. I'm going to talk to my doc about doing the 7-day placebo pills to see if I can stop this spotting. I'm not having sex, so I really don't care. Give it a try if your cramps are debilitating."
