"I did not like this birth control, and I'm switching after I complete this pack. I experienced constant nausea at the beginning of each pack and randomly throughout the pack. I would wake up in the middle of the night with a horrible feeling that I was gonna throw up. (I also have a sensitive stomach.) I thought my body was still getting used to the hormones, but I continued for more than 3 months, and nothing's changed. I would get horrible mood swings a couple of hours before and after I took the pill. I've gained weight on it, and the worst of all, I spot every month at the beginning of the second week. It sometimes lasted for up to 7 days. My period is very light, only 2 days, but I didn't want that, it's made me paranoid every month."

"Recently started taking this pill, and it has been working great so far. I have tried many other pills and have had horrible side effects, but with Gildess 1/20, so far, so good. I have had very mild side effects (light nausea and sore breasts), which only lasted two days. I would definitely recommend this pill to anyone looking for a birth control pill with little to no side effects!"
