For Birth Control "Awful, about to finish my second month. I switched off my old birth control because I switched doctors and then got prescribed this one. My face was pretty clear before, a pimple here and there, and then as soon as I started this birth control my face broke out extremely bad and has not stopped. This genuinely has taken a toll on my self-confidence. And I am someone who takes extremely good care of my skin, so this is truly a heartbreaking experience for me. If I did not pay out of pocket for this, I would have switched way sooner, but after this next month, I am definitely switching. This may not be the same case for everyone, but my experience with this pill was not good."

For Birth Control "So unlike everyone else’s comments here, I love Tarina. The last birth control made me so actually sick 24/7, I couldn’t get out of bed. With Tarina, I’ve had a small amount of breakouts (masks add onto that) and a bit of weight gain (quarantine too). My breasts have been a tad sore every couple of weeks, but it isn’t terrible. My periods are shorter, my cramps aren’t as bad until I'm on my period, but they still aren’t nearly as bad, I can take 1 pill of Pamprin and be fine. I have noticed I’m a bit moodier before my periods but, again, Pamprin or any PMS pill can help with that. Everyone’s body is different! Just try it, after a couple of months, if it’s not working for you, go see your doctor or whomever. Also, starting Tarina, I wasn’t nauseated, but I was a bit moody and had mild cramps off and on for a few weeks with a few zits here and there, but that’s just from a huge rush of estrogen our bodies will be accepting!"

For Birth Control "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."
