Experience

I have started taking Mercillon after my pill got discontinued. I had headaches and bad leg circulation since starting taking this pill. Mood swings started to affect me pretty badly after 12 months of being on this pill and just got worst. Got spotting in between periods on 2 occasions. I have now stopped taking Mercilon.
