"i began this birth control when i was 17 and my experience wasn&#039;t pleasant. i began taking microgestion fe 1/20 in june 2015. when i first began the pill, i had pretty bad nausea and was extremely emotional for the first month. on my second month, i became depressed and began to have anxiety attacks for just about everything. when my boyfriend and i would have relations he would tell me i was shedding more hair than normal. i paid more attention to it and my scalp began to hurt as if i had my hair in a ponytail and just took it out. every time i&#039;d shower or brush my hair chunks would come out, by the third month i had lost about 30% of my hair and had noticeable bald spots. not a pleasant experience. life got better when i stopped taking it"
