For Birth Control: I started Milli so I could just skip my periods, everything was fine with the first pack but once I started my second pack it started a spotting, heavier and heavier into a full blown period that hadn't stopped and it has been about to be 2 weeks. I have felt depressed and have gotten painful breakouts on my face and I don't have acne. I also feel nauseous and bloated most of the time. I'm going to give it till the end of the month and then I think I will stop because I'd rather have a period then go through this |

For Birth Control: Originally started taking this pill for terrible cramps and pain during period. After 5 months, Slynd has reduced my period to only 3 days and the pain has decreased somewhat. I was pretty happy with the shorter period and less pain, but the acne is terrible. I had an absolutely clear face and back before taking this medication. Now my face and back are always covered in pimples. I cannot take it anymore I will be switching off of this pill. Just to note I did switch from tri-lo marzia to Slynd and tri-lo is much more effective with helping with acne but useless for cramps. I will be trying Yaz next... For Birth Control: My gyn gave me 4 packs of this pill for free. Goal was to prevent pregnancy but also to get some relief from heavy monthly bleeding/cramps. I’m on pack 4 and still have breakthrough bleeding, it just happens unexpectedly and can last a week or more. Cramps have improved and haven’t gotten pregnant, but I’ve had major cystic acne and dry eyes so they’re bloodshot all the time. No weight gain which is a plus. I feel like a guinea pig since this pill was literally just approved by FDA and there are no patient reviews to be found. Not sure if I will continue taking, I can only imagine what the monthly price will be on a brand new pill on the market with no generic available. |

For Birth Control: I’ve only been using mili for about a month but my period is much longer than normal. I’m not sure if it’s from the switch to this brand or stress. I never had this problem on my other birth control but other than that have had no problems.
