For Birth Control "I have been taking these pills for two months now, and it has shown very good results. Before beginning Necon 1/35, I was taking Loestrin, and I was constantly spotting, and I had my period three times in one month."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I've been on this birth control for almost three months, and I have spotted every day, but around two for the past two months. The doctor suggested I wait this month out to make sure it isn't working, but I'm 100% changing it. Two months straight of bleeding is ridiculous."

For Birth Control "I was on this birth control for 8-9 years! My period would come like clockwork, every Tuesday of the 4th week around 9-10 a.m. Really no side effects. Unfortunately, my body got used to this pill, causing me to start to spot in between periods, and my spotting/period would last for days. I have been looking for a birth control for the last year that has had the same positive effect on my body as Necon did for so long."

For Birth Control "I recently just stopped taking Necon because of my terrible experience with it. I only took it for about 3 months, but it made my periods very irregular, I would have spotting on and off two weeks before my period, and it caused me to gain 10 pounds. I thought I was getting fat but had no change in my diet. I also have severe period cramps, and this does not help with them at all. I do not recommend this product."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I used the pill for three weeks. On the first day of the fourth week, I noticed vaginal bleeding similar to spotting. A bit nervous because I haven't had sex during this period and positive I'm not pregnant."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "Although very effective, I found the spotting a nuisance."
