4.2
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 |
4.0
For Birth Control: I took it for about 2 1/2 months. I became depressed and anxious. I was anxious before and Vienva made it worse. My body ached from it, too. The pain increasingly got worse until I finally stopped taking it. My chest also hurt. It seemed to have a negative affect on my breathing and circulation. I got a heavy period the day after I stopped taking it. It was very heavy and both my back and stomached ached. While taking it, I hardly had any cramps or PMS symptoms before periods. That was one plus side. Overall, I would not recommend. It is a poor quality birth control. If your body can take it, then great, but if you want to feel good and normal do not take it. For Birth Control: I first started taking Vienva back in May, as I was having really bad cramping with my periods and decided to go back on birth control. I will say, that it has helped a lot with cramping and same with acne. However, this month I have had SO much breakthrough bleeding that it’s been the most annoying thing ever. Today I woke up and essentially have my period, AGAIN. I am only 4 days into my new pack of pills too, and was supposed to have my period last week. Which I did, but it was so light like it has been since I started. But today I had to use a super tampon! I don’t know what’s going on, but hopefully it’s a fluke and it will be normal again next month. If not, I’ll be switching for sure. |

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.
