For Birth Control "I looked for some positive reviews before starting this birth control a doctor recommended and didn’t see many but still gave it a try. I suffer from endometriosis (have had laparoscopy, one successful, last one unsuccessful) and have tried MANY birth controls that did not help my symptoms. (Pills, Nexplanon, Depo) I spotted on Daysee from day 1 until I finished week 12, which made it hard to continue, but I’m glad I stuck with it, now only having a period every three months has helped me so much. I still have symptoms of endo: pain, nausea, bloating randomly even not on my cycle (normal with endo). But overall, I feel a lot better on this pill than not. Not many side effects I’ve noticed. It has completely cleared up my hormonal adult acne, which is a major plus. I feel normal again compared to how bad a condition I was in before with my endometriosis pain. If that is your reason for looking into trying this, I recommend it."

For Birth Control "I love this medication. I was on name-brand Seasonique for a bit, but transferred to generic to save money. I've been on Daysee for 5+ years now, and I absolutely love it. I was put on birth control 10+ years ago for intense migraine headaches, this helped a lot. I didn't gain weight or anything, and I think it makes my periods (when they happen) way more tolerable. Less cramping than before, less crazy breakouts, and almost no emotional mood swings. It has worked great!"

For Birth Control "Was on Camrese for 3 months, no issue. Insurance then switched to Daysee (another generic). 2 weeks in, I've had non-stop spotting (never had it in my life), insane acne, and absolutely no sex drive. Worst birth control I have had in my life, and I am switching back to a 1-month pill."

For Birth Control "I have stage 4 endo, with two laps. I’m 22 years old. I tried the implant, IUD, all were terrible. I have chronic pelvic pain and severe acne. Endo is no fun, as we know! This pill seems to make me very, very tired and exhausted. I've been crying a lot, and the spotting was terrible! I started the placebo pills and got back on track because I was tired of bleeding and the pain! My acne has been insane after starting this! I’m trying to hold on a little longer to see if it will subside and start to help! It doesn’t seem to help with pelvic pain though."

For Birth Control "Really thought this was gonna work for endo pain and seemed to in the beginning, however, the side effects are not worth it whatsoever. I have been bleeding for three weeks now, bloated every single day to the point I thought I was pregnant. I’m tired all the time, I’m breaking out, headaches, and have period cramps, which I never had before, let alone a period - now I don’t stop bleeding or bloating! Absolute worst medication I’ve ever been on, and I’ve been on birth control for almost 15 years."
