For Birth Control "I switched from Junel to this Balziva, and things started out with no side effects. About 3 months in, I had to go to the doctor because I was bleeding heavily in the middle of my pack. My uterus was completely filled with blood, and I continued to bleed extremely heavily for 2 weeks until I started a new brand of the pill. They said I was having a hormonal storm, something seen more in menopause (I am 21)."

For Birth Control "I have been on this birth control pill going on about 2 months now. The pill was supposed to stop my menstrual cycle due to severe cramps and inability to function when on my cycle. I originally was on Vyflema, but the prescription changed when I went to a different pharmacy, and how the regime was supposed to be taken changed as well. Problems started as minor spotting and very mild cramps to continuous spotting/bleeding and cramps every day for the past 3 weeks. I thought at first it was because my body was trying to get used to skipping the placebo pills from the first pack, however, every day the bleeding and cramping got worse during the second pack. I called my doctor today to have me switched to something else."

For Birth Control "I've been taking it for 4 months now. After 4 months, I can say that my body has adjusted pretty well to these meds. The first 3 months, I suffered with very tender breasts, headaches, breakthrough bleeding, bloating, and nausea, but month 4 has been a breeze. I'm 28, had NEVER had a menstrual cycle, extra hair growth, abnormal hormone/thyroid levels. This has worked wonders for me. Just give your body 3 - 4 months to adjust to it! My cycles are regular and last 5 - 6 days now."

For Birth Control "I've taken this birth control for 4 months now. I have irregular bleeding and cramping from it. It seems like I'm always bleeding rather than not. Didn't work for me."

For Birth Control "Was on this pill for two months and had a horrible experience. Please do not take this pill! It causes a lot of weight gain, acne, depression, bleeding, great tenderness, and mood swings."
