"This is my first birth control, and I have been on it for a month. The first few days, I felt a little nauseous, but that’s because I didn’t eat anything with it. Always make sure to eat something with it, even if it's just a few crackers! I take it at 6:30 in the morning, and I have been fine for the last month!"

"The worst months of my life. My anxiety was through the roof, I was extremely paranoid everyone was out to get me. I cried for no reason and would regularly get in slumps. I felt so depressed every day I was on it. Made me feel like I was in a melancholic movie. Didn’t get pregnant, though, so I guess it does its job. It also cleared up my acne."

"Horrible experience, I don’t stop bleeding for 11 days and continuing, acne breakouts, mood swings, all of a sudden I start crying for nothing or fighting for nothing, feeling tired, weak, I'm trying to go to the gym and I have a problem running on the treadmill. I'm getting tired very easily. I’m done with this medicine. It's so frustrating and upsetting."

"So I have been using birth control for 2 years now, and I have been on Sprintec, Trinessa, and others. They have all been fine until I started Femynor last month. I have had headaches, stomach pains, nausea, shivers, sweating, and dizziness in the middle of the night 2 nights in one month, which one time caused me to throw up. And currently having abdominal pain for no reason. I also don't get as hungry as before and get full quick. My first period with this pill was lighter than my usual periods, and I also experienced spotting during my period. I hate this pill and cannot wait to switch to another brand ASAP."

"I love this birth control. I've tried several different birth controls before, and the side effects were horrible. I do have some side effects on this one, but they are extremely mild (breast tenderness and some nausea). They are also getting better the longer I take it."

"I almost died due to 2 massive P.E. blood clots and a few small ones in the middle of my chest because the doctors and pharmacies don't bother to tell you that Femynor can cause blood clots. I was taking a low dosage for 4 months. Side effects are shortness of breath, chest pain, fainting, blurred vision, etc. A message to the pharmaceutical company: please take this drug off the shelves as it is a dangerous drug. Anybody taking this drug needs to be careful! The company that created this dangerous drug because all they want is money and not help people get cured just like most other companies, and I hope someday all the corrupted companies get shut down."

"I had previously used Ortho Tri-Cyclen and had no issues, no symptoms, everything was great. When I switched over to Femynor, it was the worst 5 months ever! The first month, I expected it to be difficult due to switching over, but I had all the symptoms-- headache, anxiety, over-emotional, nausea, bloating, tender breasts, etc. After 3 months, it dwindled to tender breasts, anxiety, but still over-emotional. I lost my AirPods in my room and burst into tears inexplicably. Needless to say, I asked my HCP to switch me to something else because just being on this medication gave me anxiety. But no pregnancies, so I guess it worked."

"Started this birth control 8 months ago, this is my first and knew some things to expect. I almost immediately felt period cramps after starting it and would feel them on and off for basically the whole month, getting worse closer to my period. Honestly, didn’t bother me that much but could be a personal thing. I definitely experienced emotional problems, but it fizzled out after 3-4 months. About 2 months after starting, my anxiety worsened, and for the past 5 months I’ve woken up in the middle of the night at least 2 days in a row every month with what feels like an anxiety attack that always results in 2 hours of violent puking. It’s the same every time and feels like episodes of constant anxiety and has lasted 5 days before. This is why I made an appointment to switch."

"I haven't had any major problems with Femynor 28, however, I think it caused my sex drive to decrease quite a bit. I've also tried skipping the placebo weeks in order to skip my period, and although it was successful, spotting was inevitable by the 2nd week of the new pill pack. If you don't care too much about sex drive and need to do something about your awful period cramps/irregular cycle, give this one a try. I don't hate it, but I'm sure my boyfriend does."

"I’ve tried Femynor pills for over 2 months now after being diagnosed with polycystic ovaries 2 months ago. My symptoms are blackheads, acne, facial hair, and hair in places I have never had before. My period was absolutely ridiculous, I would never know when it could come, sometimes within 2 weeks, or maybe 90 days after. Being sexually active is a huge problem, and also, I have cramps 24/7. They didn’t even let me stand up. Also, my period would last like 7 to 14 days, with abundant bleeding. I had to actually sleep with a plastic bag (lol) like a panty to prevent the blood from staining my bed, it was really bad. I searched all my symptoms online, and I saw that it could be that, so I finally went to a gynecologist. She sent me these pills, which honestly I guess worked, but did not get rid of my side effects of polycystic ovaries (acne, excess hair). It just regulated my period and how much I bleed, but my acne is still horrible, and so is my excess hair."

"Tried for one day, and I had to go to work with a headache, nausea, fatigue, and diarrhea! I've been on many other birth controls, and this has been the worst one yet. I've been off hormonal birth control for a while, so I guess my body isn't liking the extra hormones. I already emailed my Dr., asking for a different prescription."

"Do not take this pill. I was originally on Estarylla, but switched to Femynor a couple of months ago, as my doctor said it was the 'generic brand.' For months, I have had intense migraines, no sex drive, consistent yeast infections, and severe, severe depression. This pill is the worst, and I will stop taking it immediately."

"If you take this birth control pill, stop right now. My daughter almost died last week from blood clots in her lungs and legs. 100% attributed to this birth control pill. These manufacturers should be ashamed of themselves, knowing that this was a side effect of the drug."

"I have gained 18 lbs in 2 months on this pill. I have hypertension now, I'm always tired, moody, irritable, always hungry, have breakthrough bleeding, and have 3-4 migraines a week. This pill is evil."

"I have not had a single side effect. I have not gained weight, broken out, been moody, or felt different. It’s made my period shorter, but no need to complain about that. I love it!"

"Holy moly, Femynor does not work! I had constant bleeding for twelve days! I switched to a different pill, and the bleeding immediately stopped. Do not take this birth control."

"I've been on it for a year. Stopping it as soon as new meds come. It was okay at first. The last 3 months I bleed more than I don't. Very frustrating."

"This pill was awful. I’ve never bled for 2 weeks and longer before I started taking this. It was so annoying. My doctor switched my pills, but I started in like September. I’ll see how it goes."
