For Birth Control "Gildess Fe 1.5/30 has been nothing but a positive experience for me. I started on 1/20 and had random spotting through the month, but when I bumped up to 1.5/30, it was fixed right away. I used to suffer from extreme emotional breakdowns during my period and such heavy bleeding that I literally could not leave the house for 3 days. With the first month of Gildess, my period was 'normal,' and now after 3 years of use, I get very light periods for less than a day and little to no cramping and no other adverse side effects. I never gained weight, never struggled with acne, or had any other issues. The only reason I rate it 9/10 is because sometimes I feel like my sex drive is lower at times. Never got pregnant."

For Birth Control "I started taking this birth control a little over two years ago based on the fact that I was moving in with my boyfriend and figured it was the smart thing to do. Now, after a recent breakup, I'm starting to question if it's really worth it. I've always had irregular, lengthy, very painful periods, and this pill drastically shortened my periods and regulated them, my cramps have gotten worse, if anything. My skin is clear, but I had taken Accutane at 17, so I should probably be thanking that hell of a pill for that. Those are probably my only pros. Cons include: weight gain, constant bloating, hair loss, migraines, breast sagging, zero sex drive, no energy, down mood. I think writing this answered my question, I'm stopping at the end of the month."

For Birth Control "I've had a horrible experience with this birth control. It was my first time going on birth control, so my doctor recommended Gildess. I gained over 20 pounds in 5 months. I had a decrease in sex drive. I also had horrible mood swings, not just while I was PMS'ing but all the time. I actually just stopped taking birth control because I hated the way it made me feel. If anyone has any recommendations for me that will make me feel a little better, I would appreciate it. This was the worst birth control, though."

For Birth Control "Gildess obviously works, I experienced no weight gain and shorter, lighter periods. My sex drive has decreased very badly, and I have been experiencing awful mood swings that are really starting to impact my day-to-day life, and I am switching immediately."
