"i switched to safyral two months ago after losing my insurance and needing free samples to carry me until my new job provided me with coverage. i have been on ocella and yasmin, depending on which was free at the time of refill, since i was 15 (now 26) and have had a great experience. my periods were always regular, minimal breakthrough bleeding (only occurring when i missed a pill or 2), no cramps, 3-4 day periods with very light bleeding. since switching to safryl i experience consistent breakthrough bleeding. three to four days before i expect my period i get nauseous, dizzy/faint, and get horrible cramps. i&#039;m really looking forward to going back to ocella. this is not similar to ocella and yasmin as i was told previously."
