"been taking it for less than a week and i am miserable. been on bc before with no side effects, went off for a couple years then decided to try this based on my docs recommendation. awful cramping/abdominal pain to the point i am doubled over in pain. nausea to the point of dry heaving and almost vomiting. i already have anxiety/depression and this just added to it, big time. the first night i took the pill i woke up to bleeding, despite my period having just ended. wish i had another option other than hormonal bc, because i am miserable during my periods."
