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 "At first, I liked this pill. It gave me boobs and kept me from getting pregnant. About a year in, I started getting recurrent UTIs that I later discovered were caused by recurrent BV and yeast infections that I should not have been having. I'm now having intense mood swings I've never experienced and find myself feeling out of breath, hopeless, a depressing feeling I've never had before. I also had zero vaginal moisture while taking it and had frequent random spotting. I stopped taking it yesterday and made an appointment to switch forms."

For Birth Control "Trivora was very effective in preventing pregnancy. However, almost immediately after I began pack 1, I experienced yeast infections due to the high levels of hormones. The symptoms went away once I took some over-the-counter creams. I'm currently at the end of pack 3, and I'm getting off of this pill because I've experienced bloating, stomach cramps, and really, really bad gas! I've never had a gas problem until I began Trivora. So this gas cramping occurs at random times daily, and it's a problem! So I can't wait to try something different."

For Birth Control "I started Trivora about 8 months ago, and it works very, very well, especially in preventing pregnancy. However, I am taking it more so to help control my hormones and periods, which is doing exactly that. The bad side is the yeast infections and increases in anxiety, which I am now taking medicine for."
