For Birth Control "I’m rating this a one. Although it didn’t help regulate my period and I never had any breakthrough bleeding, it caused severe acne on my face. I used to have occasional pimples and over the past 6 or so months of taking it, my face hasn’t been clear. I stopped taking it once I had my most recent period because I was switching to another pill. Two weeks without this one my face is clear again. I haven’t seen my face normal in about 6 or so months. It didn’t make me gain weight or have any other side effects but if you think it’s causing you to breakout, chances are it is."

For Birth Control "I have been on Marlissa and Levora (both the same, just generics) and they gave me this Lillow because it was also supposed to be the same and I have had a TERRIBLE reaction to heat. I work outside and have NEVER had an issue with heat. Once I started taking this I became almost completely intolerant to heat making it very hard for me to work. And not to mention o would just feel like rubbish. After reading other reviews i cannot believe this is on the market. One day the left side of my head and face started feeling weird and I thought I was going to have a stroke or something. It was crazy. Never ever ever again will I take this."

For Birth Control "This medication Lillow caused me to have high blood pressure. Stay away from these hormonal birth control pills. Ask for a POP (progesterone only pill)s if you have a family history of high blood pressure and also never had high blood pressure."

For Birth Control "This was my first birth control I've ever taken and for the first couple of months (1-2) it didn't really have any side effects on my body. Since then, it has helped to regulate my periods and keep them light and cramp free. I do have painful breakouts on my face a couple days before my period but overall, it has made my skin more oily, prone to break outs, red, and textured. My skin was clear and soft before so I know it has to do w/ the pill. It also takes an emotional toll on me when I do have more stress in my life. I did have a month where I didn't take my pills and the withdrawals were bad. Painful cramps, heavy bleeding, and awful breakouts as well. Wouldn't recommend this brand of BC to anyone if given the choice."

For Birth Control "I was originally using the BC Marlissa until CVS switched me to Lillow. I was fine for about the first year and a half (started using March 2017) of use but recently, over the past four months I've had extreme mood swings (for me), anxiety, acne on my forehead, terrible bloating, and breakthrough bleeding the entire week before my period. I plan on stopping Lillow and using the Daysy fertility monitor."

For Birth Control "I used this birth control for over a year. Before starting it I never had acne and I would break out before my period, and after. Which never happened before. Along with that, it made me have extreme PMS where I couldn’t control my emotions, which I never had an issue with, and it would last the whole month. It changes the mood significantly, on top of all of that I never experienced cramps where I couldn’t walk or get out of bed, until I started taking this pill, as a server in the restaurant industry, it takes a big toll on my work. I did wait a year so my body could fully regulate to it, but just now switched. All in all, I’m not pregnant which is what I wanted it for anyways l, so it did that job."

For Birth Control "Took this pill for 4 months and made me spiral into the worst depression of my life. I couldn't even leave my house or get out of bed to care for my kids. Worst months of my life. It did not help my acne and I had horrible mood swings. I stopped this pill and within days I returned to my old self. I have taken other birth control pills in the past and never had a response this terrible. Do not take this medicine."

For Birth Control "I took Lillow for 22 days. On the 22nd day I wound up in the hospital for three days with occlusive and non-occlusive bilateral pulmonary embolisms. The recovery from this is going to take months. Taking this medication almost cost me my life."

For Birth Control "Not a fan of Lillow pill. It’s made me gain 15 pounds and my skin isn’t as good. I used to take other generic Portia and loved it."
