For Birth Control "I recently stopped taking Trivora after using it for 2 years. It gave me a recurring bacterial vaginosis and a yeast infection. It also made my anxiety really bad and gave me mild depression. I also gained a lot of weight on the pill throughout the years. It was really effective in preventing pregnancy, though I was having unprotected sex with a partner for a year and did not get pregnant. Although I would say all the cons outweigh the pros. Would not recommend this drug for the reason of mental sanity."

For Birth Control "Have been taking Trivora for 8 years straight and never had problems until about 2 years ago. I went from having a wild sex drive no man could ever keep up with to absolutely zero sex drive and can’t get physically aroused anymore, and despite working an extremely physically active full-time job and going to the gym, I had severe weight gain (gained over 30 pounds). Despite staying at the gym and working out an extra hour or two each day and being completely faithful to my strict diet, I could not shed any of the weight AT ALL. Got all kinds of tests done with my doctor and ruled everything out except for the birth control as to the very weird sudden extreme weight gain. I have to change to a different pill, hopefully, a different pill will help this!!"

For Birth Control "Horrible for me. I encountered weight gain, severe acne, and breast tenderness. I ended up switching to another birth control and had no issues afterwards."
