Comparing Taytulla vs Tri-Lo-Sprintec

For Birth Control I have been on this pill for about three months now. It's my first type of birth control I've ever taken so I have nothing to compare it to. The first two months, symptom wise, were horrid. I got extreme mood swings, horrid acne (my skin has always been clear), weight gain, and tender breasts. After the two months, however, the symptoms went completely away. I did have irregular periods before but now they come at the exact time thanks to this pill. That's why I gave it 5 stars.

For Birth Control I just got off depo and wanted implanon but they told me to take a "three month break" since I been on it so long. Anyways I have been taking taytulla for about three weeks. My breast are killing me. They feel like thy weight 100 pounds and are lumpy. Will update more once the shot leaves my body more and have been taking the pill longer. That's the only side effect that I am seeing so far.

For Birth Control I was on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo for about five years. It was fantastic, no problems at all. My insurance switched me to Tri Lo Sprintec and initially I was excited because its fully covered. The first month was fine, and then the breakouts started. They have gradually gotten worse. I gave it six months to see if things would settle down, but they haven't at all. I'm broken out on my chest, back, all up my neck and behind my ears, along my jaw and forehead. I even had a huge zit on my earlobe this week. These are not normal breakouts. I'm so disappointed in this generic and I'm switching.

For Birth Control As far as effectiveness, I did not get pregnant while taking this medication. However, I experienced so many side effects I eventually stopped taking it and switched back to Ortho-tri-lo. I experienced problems with mood swings, irritability, anxiety (racing heart and anxious feelings for no reasons), depression, cramps, spotting, headaches, decreased sex drive, weight gain, breast/nipple tenderness and vaginal irritation. All of these are side effects I had never experienced with Ortho, so I switched back and have little to no side effects. It definitely was not worth the money saved because it made me feel like a crazy person and I really did not have control over my emotions, I would experience all extremes especially anger and crying.
