"I’ve been on Tarina Fe for almost a year, and it has been the worst year of my life. I cry all the time. I’m sad all the time. Yes, my periods are short, almost painless, and not a heavy flow at all, but it isn’t worth being sad all the time. I’ve never in my life dealt with so much anxiety."

"I've been taking Tarina Fe 1/20 for a month now, not taking the placebo week, and it has been awful. I've felt super angry over the smallest things, I can't stop eating, I get horrible hot flashes, I've been extremely dehydrated, I've had a constant migraine since starting, I've been getting horrible cramps, my acne has been pretty bad as well, and I'm on the heaviest period I've had in two and a half years."
