I experienced some negative side effects when I first went on the pill (mood swings, headaches), both this time around and previously, but they dissipated/softened after a few months. My migraines have increased in frequency over the last 12 months, but I have been a migraine suffered since puberty.

Overall after trying many different pills, this was the best, I started to have very depressive weeks so I stopped as I was afraid of some suicidal thoughts.

I tried this pill for 6 months to help manage heavy periods, painful cramps and lower back pain whilst on a waiting list for laparoscopy for endometriosis adhesions. I’d tried 3x combined pills before but had issues with them affecting my mental health so tried the POP this time. I experienced nausea for the first 6 weeks and some dizziness, but this subsided. It did improve my skin and I haven’t experienced any changes in anxiety or low mood. Coming off this pill as it didn’t stop my periods, it made them irregular instead. This made managing them (with the same level of cramps and back pain as before) really difficult.
