"I'm so grateful I finally found this pill. I feel like I have my life back. It has allowed me, after 3 major surgeries and years of painful hormones, to remember what it feels like to *not* be in pain/discomfort all the time. I use Zenchent continuously in with the arm implant Nexplanon (implant alone wasn't enough). Between the two, I do not have any bleeding, nor endo symptoms (mostly intestinal and ovarian when they're bad), nor any bad side effects - no tender breasts, decreased sex drive, acne breakouts, crazy mood swings, cramping, bloating, food cravings, weight gain, rage attacks (all of which I've experienced with other hormone regimens). I actually sleep better on this pill. Have hope that you can find the right endo management too!"

"I was on Ovcon for at least 2 years. I just remember regular periods, no real weight gain, no change in sex drive. I stopped taking it for a year just because I didn't need to be on it. Then I needed birth control again and was put on Velivet (hated it). I'm currently on Apri, which I hate. So I'm changing back to Ovcon this month."
