"Took this medication, progesterone, post-hysterectomy for endometriosis. Made me very drowsy, so was forced to take it at night. Also caused extreme depression and fatigue, with a groggy feeling in the morning. Felt like I wasn't getting enough sleep. Completely got rid of my sex drive, couldn't even get turned on. Stopped taking it after a month and feel much better without it."

"I've been taking this medication for a year now and was hoping I'd get used to it, but no luck. It did initially help with the wicked menstrual cramps I'd get on day 2 (vomiting from pain), but I can't take enough of it due to the side effects. I can only take it on the weekend, then it ruins my whole weekend. I feel tired, dizzy, can't think clearly, clumsy, and kind of drunk. It also stays in my system a really long time, 24-36 hour half-life, so I'm drunk and dizzy for that long. Bummer because it doesn't make me feel nauseous at all, like the pill does. Still, I may try the birth control pill instead. Can't really function on this and not sure I should be driving, much less working on it."

"I read all the reviews prior to taking this medication. I was quite concerned with the side effects a lot of people were experiencing. I decided to give myself a week of taking the meds and then I would re-evaluate my decision. I was placed on this medication to help with symptoms of endometriosis, adenomyosis, fibroid, and cysts, and to help reduce the inflammation in my uterus. I started taking (Errin .35) medication at dinnertime. The first three days, I did experience some pretty heavy fatigue, and on days four and five, I had some facial acne. I am now on day ten and don't have any side effects. I also weighed myself on day seven and had no weight change. My mood hasn't changed much from where I was before. I have not had a cycle yet as I am on week two. All in all, I am doing well on this medication. I will try to update you if anything changes in the future."
