For Birth Control "I’ve used Daysee for about 8 months, and I have finally stopped... my life has been miserable since month 4. I bled every day from the fourth month until now (one week off), and the breakthrough bleeding is the heaviest I’ve ever experienced!"

For Birth Control "If I could give this a zero, I would. When I started it, it extended my period by over a week. I went about a week and a half without bleeding, and when I was under the assumption I wouldn’t bleed for two months, I have now been bleeding for two weeks again. It made me very tired and extremely depressed. I find myself crying almost every day over things I typically wouldn’t cry over. I became very bloated quickly, and my breasts have continued to get bigger every day since beginning this medication. I understand medication affects everyone differently, but if you have a choice, I suggest finding a different birth control."

For Birth Control "I've been on multiple different birth control pills, this one being the best by far! I was previously on Isibloom, which made me incredibly nauseous and even caused me to throw up almost daily, made me severely depressed and down all the time, and was just absolutely miserable. This birth control is completely different from that! It was recommended to me by my doctor, and it hasn’t affected me emotionally at all (none that I've noticed anyways), and I’ve only had some breakthrough spotting and bleeding at the start of it, and I am now going on month five. It’s also completely cleared up my skin and I haven’t had any loss of libido or anything, the only side effects I’ve really noticed is it has made my breasts bigger/swollen and sometimes tender, but other than that, I prefer this pill over any other by far!"

For Birth Control "I decided on Daysee to help with heavy menstrual periods, as the first 2 to 3 days of my period are heavy. Well, this has been a nightmare. The first two months, I had light bleeding every day. It then turned to heavy bleeding every single day. When I say heavy, I mean changing tampons (super) and backup overnight pads every single hour. I couldn’t sleep because I was up every hour. I finally had enough and just stopped taking the pills. I had two weeks left of my 3-month supply when I stopped. I have been bleeding heavily for eight days. Yesterday was the first day that I saw signs of the bleeding slowing up."

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."

For Birth Control "I started off on a low dose birth control pill (Camrese Lo) and experienced NON-STOP bleeding for almost 3 weeks. It was not spotting, it was a heavy flow for almost a month straight. My doctor changed my prescription to Daysee, and within 3 days my bleeding stopped. I have had little problems with spotting, just every now and then. I am 5'8" and 135 pounds, I've been on the birth control for about 6 months, and I have NOT gained any weight. I also have had no problems with hair loss or acne. I do have mood swings, but I had those before birth control... LOL. By the way, this is my first birth control ever! I take my pill at 9 PM, sometimes, if I take it too late, I will spot the next day, but it is SUPER light and resolves within hours. I use this for BC, and I have unprotected sex with my partner regularly, no scares!"

For Birth Control "I had been using Ashlyna for over a year with no issue when my insurance carrier made me switch to their pharmacy, then made me switch to Daysee. For three months, I’ve bled continuously, sometimes spotting, sometimes heavy bleeding with cramps (heavier than my periods on Ashlyna). This is supposed to be the exact same chemical makeup as Ashlyna, but something is obviously different. Luckily, once I explained what was going on to a pharmacist at the new pharmacy run by my insurance carrier, they agreed to switch me back."

For Birth Control "When I first got on Daysee, it was great. No period for 3 months, and it was generally lighter. Been on it for about 5 years now? I didn't get the spotting and breakthrough bleeding they claim you get until now, when I've been on it for so long. I don't know what went wrong, but I hate it now. I start spotting around month two, then it gradually gets heavier, which I assume is my period starting. The bleeding doesn't stop until like a week after starting my new pack? I've been trying to keep taking them because maybe it's something I was doing wrong, but it's been going on for about a year or two, and I am so over it. I'd rather go back to my 5-day heavy period before birth control than to be bleeding for over a month. Pads aren't cheap."
