I've got on the pill again after a couple of years. I've always used this sort of pill. In the past I've gained a bit of weight due to an increse in my appetite and become a little moody for the first two months. However, my periods were regular, lighter and shorter and my skin was cleaner. do any of you have any experiences with microgynon?
no i was fine on it. a couple of my friends put on weight from other types but no one i know on mycrogynon have had any problems but these things vary from person to person
I had to start using the pill because my bloodloss was too heavy.. I tried several pills because I was really in pain from the cramps during me period.. I had microgynon 30 as well and it didn't really do anything special apart from regulating and birthcontrol. I ended up using Diana 35 which is a pretty 'heavy' pill, but it works great for acné as well. However, my pains were still very bad and I decided to quit all the medical bullshit and let my body take care of itself, so I've been off the pill for over a year now. I'm not in pain anymore (!), probably also thanks to a visit to a homeopath (sp?).. however, my hormones are still really fucked up, because I've been producing milk (just a tiny bit, but it's there!) for over a year now as well.. strannnngee.. and no, I'm not pregnant Soooo.. pills can be good, pills can be bad.. all depends on why you want to use it and what your priorities are. I absolutely love not using it, because my body feels more 'real' now.. but having to use condoms is a bitch.. ah well.. Oh, btw.. never had weightproblems, although I dropped a few pounds after I quit (thanks god I've got'm back).. but because of the pain I had when on the pill and menstruating I took the advice of the gyno to just keep taking it without the stop-week.. and that made me depressed as hell! Did I mention that I love having stopped with it? *grin*
it made me suicidal and bulimic. I'm never going on the pill again. I use cannabis to stop the pain, and condoms to stop the babies and it works fine for me
