This birth control has been...the worst. Truly. My doctor put me on it after being on Lo Loestrin Fe for about a year. Lo Loestrin Fe worked well for the majority of the time I was on it, until it was clear I needed to be on a higher dose to manage my symptoms of endometriosis. Within weeks after starting this pill I began spotting, and by the second month I was bleeding heavily every single day, ... Show Full Comment

Within weeks after starting this pill I began spotting, and by the second month I was bleeding heavily every single day, with cramps. I felt fatigued and horrible for weeks. I've just switched to Microgestin 1/20 and I already feel better.

Amethyst has helped tremendously to ease my endometriosis. I no longer miss Weeks from work and school when ever mother nature send me my present, if I even get it!! Very effective as long as its taken at the same time every day.. I recommend setting an alarm on your phone and always have it with you!! Just like with all other hormonal birth control form though, it has its side affects and how one woman reacts to taking it can and most likely will be different from every other woman taking it.. My doctor and I have tried every thing from the shot, to the implants, and a majority oftthe other oral contraceptives.. This was my last hope before the doctor decided he need to do something more serious. I am only 22. I had been suffering with double you over, cry for your mom periods since I was 12.. This medicine has really changed my life

I stopped having monthly migraines around menstruation. No more clots the size of my hand. No more aching all day. Sex became a pleasure again. No pain afterwards.

When I first began taking Amethyst, I had a lot of nausea in the mornings, but that went away after two weeks. It works really well as long as I remember to take it regularly. It has drastically decreased my pains from endometriosis and all of my periods have been very light, and spread apart. I generally don't have a period at all as long as I take my pills.
