For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I took Previfem from August '16 to October '17 for heavy periods and bad cramping. The first month, it made me break out like crazy on my forehead, but that cleared up rather quickly into the second month. It made my periods much lighter and eliminated my cramping altogether. By the summer of 2017, I had a major shift in my lifestyle. I was no longer in college, where I was on the crew team for three years, and a new job had started up. With the shift in my lifestyle, my periods became incredibly heavy. Still no cramping, but I was bleeding through super plus tampons after 6 hours. I know it was due to the stressors in my life and my lack of exercise, but my doctor and I have decided to switch over to something that is better equipped for my lifestyle."

For Birth Control "First birth control pill I have ever taken, and it's been 2 weeks. So far, so good. I haven't noticed too many side effects, besides soreness and some growth in the breasts. No intense cravings, no mood swings, no nausea, no weight gain, and no depression. I am a little more sensitive than before, but that's about it."

For Birth Control "Used this for 5 years, was amazing for the first 4 years, no issues. The last year I was taking it, all of a sudden I had yeast infections every period, long painful periods, and no sex drive whatsoever. Over time, the side effects just grew to be unbearable. I ditched pills altogether, and my boyfriend and I just use condoms for 5 months, and all my symptoms went away."

For Birth Control "This birth control has increased acne and appetite, causing me to retain water. My breasts are also sore, and I find that I become nauseous no matter if I take it with food or not."

For Birth Control "It gave me pseudotumor cerebri, and now it's a chronic condition I must live with. I have a risk, four years later, of losing my vision."
