For Birth Control "I want to break down in tears right now because after reading all these reviews, I know I’m not alone. My pharm switched me to Blisovi after Microgestin, and my depression and anger are THROUGH THE ROOF. My anger is hurting other people so bad that I’m seeking anger management. Maybe I should save myself the money and just stop taking this pill because it has to be the problem."

For Birth Control "I took this for 2 years and felt emotionally up and down constantly. I was depressed and would feel angry all the time. I would feel intense anger or depression, and it felt like a hole I couldn't climb out of for days at a time. It dawned on me after all that time that it could be an effect of the pill. I stopped the pill and felt back to my old self soon after."

For Birth Control "My original prescription was for Microgestin, which I’ve been taking for 4 years. When I was given Blisovi, I asked my doctor, was assured it was the same formula, so I began my first month's supply without fear. I began waking up every morning so nauseous that I felt like passing out. I thought it was from skipping breakfast, so I made sure to eat every morning, no change. I waited it out and saw if it would pass in month 2 when my body fully adjusted. Nope, I was still nauseous and became very irritable. I started going to bed early, but still woke up angry. My mood swings started to affect my boyfriend’s mental health. I thought it was stress, so I sought out help to control my anger and anxiety. I got so depressed, I forgot to start month 3. Within a week, I noticed I felt less irritated and anxious, and my nausea disappeared. My mind was clear, and I started up month 3, and the next morning it started again. Seeing these reviews has given me so much relief to know I’m not the only one going through this."

For Birth Control "Have been on Microgestin for years. One day, the pharmacy just said they didn’t have any, but this one is “totally the same thing.” Absolutely not. The whole month I’ve taken this pill, I have been extremely exhausted nonstop, have felt nauseous every day, have had awful stomach pains for a week leading up to my period, and every little thing annoys or makes me sad. After reading the reviews, it’s obviously not only me that has experienced these side effects. Haven’t gotten pregnant, so that’s the reason for the couple of stars I gave this pill. Would not recommend. Anyone who’s been on Microgestin, please know this is NOT the same and will make you feel different."

For Birth Control "I got this birth control through the app Nurx, and I thought it was the coolest, fastest way to get birth control. I was on microgestin before this pill, and everything was fine. Since getting this pill, I’ve noticed my anxiety skyrocket, mild depression, and I cry so much for every little thing, and my moods are just off the charts. I can be totally fine one moment, then something sets me off. And I feel angry most of the time. I thought this was only me, but now everything makes sense. I think I’ll stop taking this pill. I do not recommend."

For Birth Control "I want to thank all the other women coming forward about the horrible side effects of being switched from regular Microgestin to this medicine by the pharmacist. I hadn’t pieced this all together: why the immense anger, anxiety, sleeplessness, swelling in my legs, and 22 lbs of weight gain in 4 months after being about the same weight for 5 years! It’s been a horrible 18 months for me. This month, I opted to skip birth control to see if it helped the bloating and mood swings, and it did. I peed all the time, lost tons of water weight, slept through the night, and could button my jeans again. I went to start my birth control today, the Blisovi, I hesitated and decided to do some research and found all of these voices. I am exhausted by our struggles and doctors saying all generics are the same. Stick with Microgestin, and if you are one of the new users who thinks it’s great, track your weight, mood, and sleep over at least 6 months and see if you don’t notice a change."

For Birth Control "I have been on this terrible pill since 2016, and I went from 190 lb to 240 lb, my highest weight ever! Also, I diet and nothing happens. I stay bloated and aggravated, and I cry for no reason at all. Some nights after I take the pill, I get sweaty, diarrhea, can’t sleep, and have severe stomach pain. Many more, can’t think of them all, but it’s bad!!! I go to the hospital when I can’t handle it, and it’s not my gallbladder or anything, so I’m assuming it’s this pill. It’s every night I take it. Terrible!!! I have 5 kids, so I don’t want to stop BC, but I'm really thinking of it! I feel it’s no good, and my symptoms are just like some of the ladies on here. It’s a bad pill and needs to be recalled. No sex drive at all, I feel like I’m an old lady!!!! What should I do!!?"
