Experience

The only pill I have ever been on and I have been lucky enough to not have any major side effects. No weight gain/loss. It’s helped level out my mood swings and to stop me having such frequent heavy periods. I tend to get a headache towards the end of my period lasting a few days and sometimes can feel a bit sick in the mornings if I take the pill on an empty stomachs the night before. Other than that no major side effects.
