"i was on this for about a year and everything was great. then i went off it for about 5 years (did not take anything else in place of alesse). i then went back on for about 6 months. after the first month, i started having severe external itch, got tested for yeast infection but it wasn&#039;t it. for 5 months i woke up 2-3 times every night with unbearable itch. i went off the pill and noticed right away the symptoms were much milder. within 2 months i&#039;m completely normal again.

i don&#039;t know what&#039;s different between 5 years ago and now but something is definitely different."
