Experience

Having changed pull from Microgynon to Levest, I gained about 5 pounds over the period of a few months. I’ve had little to no change in mood swings, and my periods have got a lot lighter and shorter. I have no issues at all with levest, apart from very sore breasts when coming to the end of a packet.
