4.1
For Birth Control: I haven't even been on this for a month and I'm already looking into something different. My head is always hurting, I'm nauseous, tired and my anxiety is been off the charts. And I've been insanely emotional. The only good thing is that I'm not pregnant, but the symptoms are similar to pregnancy, so it still makes me think I'm pregnant. |
5.8
For Birth Control: I've used Xulane for the last 3 years and it's been effective for me as a birth control but I get my normal period on my week off and also usually another week of the month I'm spotting, which is irritating. I've experience breast tenderness and I've had 3 patches fall off completely since I've had it and a few others that I got to re-stick, which was stressful! I'm getting the implant this week to see how it goes, especially since it's longer lasting, but if it doesn't work out I plan to use Xulane again since I really hate pills! For Birth Control: PROS: 1) patch method 2) can skip periods 3) can get in multiples (3 month supplies) 4) helps acne 5) helps level hormones 6) fully covered by insurance CONS: 1) major fatigue 2) increased cervical mucus 3) migraines 4) sore muscles 5) groggy body and head |

For Birth Control: Every body is different and I’m not saying this is a bad pill, it just didn’t work for me. I’m hoping this review can ease some other girls’ minds who are experiencing the same thing as me. I was put on this pill because my insurance no longer covered my usual brand Junel Fe and was told Larin was “the same thing, just different packaging.” 3-4 days into the pack, I started getting nauseous and anxious every day. I would gag at the smell of certain things and my breasts hurt. I was convinced I was pregnant, which made my anxiety skyrocket. Turns out Larin Fe did its job preventing pregnancy, but the side affects were terrible. I threw up for the first time since being on this pill today, and will be stopping immediately.
