birth control
"I had mild water retention (about 5lbs), moderate bloating with abdominal pain, and persistent diarrhea while taking this pill.  The first few days of taking Junel I had nausea, vertigo, and blurred vision.  The nausea and visions problems disappeared within three days, but the other side effects continued with use.

I was taking this for endometriosis to try and help relieve my cramps.  I was disappointed because instead of having pain only the first couple of days of my period, I was left with daily abdominal pain and then my period pains were definitely elevated (from and 8 to a 9 on my pain scale).

I'm off this pill now, though, because I experienced migraine with aura."
