For Birth Control "I have been on Blisovi for over a year, and just recently I have decided to switch. This was my first BC, so I had no clue what to expect, so when I spotted nearly every month, I thought it was normal. After talking with my doctor, she told me it was obviously not, but to give it more time. It never stopped, and I have basically had two periods every month for the duration of me taking it (and I take it at the same time every day). As well as spotting, I have terrible mood swings, bad cramps, bloating, and my anxiety has increased. The only positives I have about this BC are that I have no acne, and I have not experienced any weight gain."

For Birth Control "I switched to this birth control after being on Lo Loestrin Fe for about 6 months because of insurance reasons. My period is extremely inconsistent on this birth control, whereas on Loestrin I would always get at least a light period. I like to get my period, so I know I’m not pregnant, but I only get it every couple of months now. Also, I will randomly spot bleed even if I haven’t missed my birth control, and I get very nauseous for weeks at a time. This nausea will go away for a couple of weeks and then come back. I have taken multiple pregnancy tests when I miss my period because of this and my symptoms, but it turns out it’s just from the birth control. This birth control isn’t horrible and doesn’t affect my mood, but physically it’s annoying."

For Birth Control "I've used this pill for 4 months and now I'm switching because of insurance. I felt like a whole different person on this. I would have all these mood swings for no reason. I became very depressed and was very sad all the time. But this stuff works wonders. I did have some spotting in the first month, but I had mild cramps instead of the usual severe ones. My face looks so clear and healthy. So basically, it helped me physically but not mentally."

For Birth Control "I was on Balziva for the past year, but my new insurance won't cover it, so my doctor prescribed Blisovi. I am on the first week of my second pack. I got my period with heavy bleeding on the second week of my first pack, then continued to have cramps until the fourth week. I had spotting when I was supposed to have my period according to the pack. At the beginning of each pack so far, I've experienced horrible nausea. I thought it was my body adjusting to new medication, but after reading these reviews, I may need to take these symptoms up with my doctor."

For Birth Control "After being off of BC for 19 years, I decided I was tired of my horrible PMS symptoms and asked my Dr. to give me BC so I could skip my periods. The last BC I was on was Seasonale, 1 period every 3 months. It was awesome. Since I've started this pill, I have experienced anxiety attacks and constantly feeling sad, not me at all! The worse part of it is the bleeding, I have skipped my period for the last 7 months, but that hasn't stopped the bleeding. I have been bleeding for 2 weeks now. Since I've started this pill, I probably have had 2 days of not spotting. I bled for 17 days at first. This sucks!"

For Birth Control "I got put on this BC 7 months ago after having complications with my past BC. The first month of taking this pill was horrible, my period was 23 days straight. The next 3 months were good, I didn't have any complications. Then in July, I started having irregular spotting, and it hasn't stopped since. I am currently in a 22-day period right now, and I am about to lose my mind. I'm definitely calling my doctor first thing Monday morning to get switched to something else."

For Birth Control "I started this birth control to prevent pregnancy and hopefully ease my monthly cramps. This was the first time I have gone on the pill, and I was very worried about hormones and side effects, but I was willing to try it out in sake of preventing pregnancy. My overall experience with this brand has been amazing! I have had no side effects and haven't gained weight. Any monthly PMS symptoms I used to suffer through are gone, my periods are lighter, and my skin has never looked clearer. For the most part, I've never had too many issues with acne, but I wouldn't consider my skin to be perfect by any means (a few pimples here and there on my face and body throughout the month), but ever since I started taking Blisovi, my skin has never looked clearer and fresher. Any acne on my body has also completely cleared! Although I'm rating this birth control a 10/10, I do want to give a fair warning that the first 2-3 days on the pill I did have a little bit of spotting."

For Birth Control "My pharmacist auto-refilled to this generic version. I was spotting in between periods and an emotional mess. This is one of the worst BCPs!"

For Birth Control "It caused extreme anxiety and depression. Once I was off of it for just one week, I felt extreme relief. Totally alters lifestyle. Hardly got periods but did spot."

For Birth Control "I was switched to Blisovi when my doctor increased my dosage after 6 years on Reclipsen. After 2 months, I am still having headaches, extreme breast pain, back pain, random spotting (usually 2 weeks before my period is supposed to happen). I have never missed a period in 16 years and didn't have one once I started this pill, but have spotted and had cramps and breast pain throughout the pack. The side effects are terrible. I'm active and eat healthy, but still have constant bloating, breast discomfort, and I'm exhausted. Trying to get on a new pill as soon as possible. I won't give this another month."
