"When I took the first pack of Microgestin Fe 1.5/30, I was very nauseous, had tender breasts, and gained an extra 10 lbs, which was great since I used to weigh 95 lbs! I also had spotting and had heavy bleeding more towards the afternoon for over a month. I was a bit concerned, but after that, my periods have been light, cramps have been light as well, and I have a regular period! As for a year using it, I enjoy it! I may have a few times of the month with nausea, but I'm sure it's due to sometimes taking it too late later that day. I have some sad moments, which are 2x a month, so it's minimal. I'm still at the same weight that I gained. I rarely have those intense side effects it claims. Everybody is different though, but definitely give it six months to fully see how it works for you."

"I've been on Microgestin for about 6 months, and it's worked very well for me. Light periods, no problems with acne, no cramps, not even mood swings, nor drastic change in libido. Highly recommended."

"I have had no side effects whatsoever on this pill. This is the first birth control pill I have ever taken, and it has worked great for me! I'm not sure if this matters, but I am 18 years old."

"Been on this pill for years. The only occasional problem I experience is breakthrough bleeding, but it's usually very light and goes away quickly. I had some headaches initially when I first started taking it, but they went away after the first month of being on the pill. It did eliminate my sex drive almost completely, which I loved, but I can see why many people wouldn't like that side effect."
