Portia for Endometriosis User Reviews

"I would never recommend Portia. I was switched from Levora to Portia after Kaiser said they didn’t have Levora anymore. The first week I started taking Portia, I started to notice I was very depressed and anxious. As week two came around, it only got worse. To the point where I wasn’t able to eat because of my anxiety and ended up in the hospital. I have since stopped Portia and have felt a little more normal. I would not recommend Portia to anyone because it seems like a lot of people have the same side effect: depression and anxiety."

"The first 3 months on Portia, I had water retention, low appetite, nausea, and lost some weight. But the pill immediately stopped my period. I am taking Portia for Endo. I've been taking it for close to a year, and it works great! It keeps all of the symptoms away, and I have had no acne or major weight gain."
