I feel absolutely crazy and my mood swings are out of control. I am breaking out and I am SO THIRSTY all of the time. This is terrible.

Effective as a birth control, and haven't gained any weight. I actually lost weight but my skin has been awful on it. I swear a new zit pops up every day, and then 1 big break out each week. Never had this much acne before but I don't wanna go through the process of switching birth control again and dealing with side effects.

I absolutely DO NOT recommend this medication. My pharmacist changed me to it and I've had nothing but issues. I found that it caused a lot of spotting which has never happened to me before, and bleeding between periods. It kept my skin clear but the bleeding/spotting has been such a pain.

I put my 16 year old daughter on vestura about 5 months ago and she lost 5lbs. Has no side effects and it's been amazing for her periods and cramps. She spots for 2-4 days and has no cramps at all. I highly recommend this birth control.

I loved the medication at first.my periods were so light and no breath pain.had break thru bleeding.then the migraines came on and thought I should drink more water.I was suddenly hot all the time. Then when I ate I become dizzy,and felt like I needed to lay day.I became weak and my hair was really falling out. My hands and jaw were hurting so badly, I was going to specialty doctors for it. I was sleeping 13 hours a night.my food stop digesting properly. My doctor called me to tell me my cholesterol was high and it has very high cholesterol even after I adopted a no wheat, no sugar diet. I was so sick I finally took my book sugar in the morning and it was 242 in the morning after an empty stomach.my vision was blurry.and some of the side effects were normal for this medication.finally after the diabetes scare, I looked up the original name of YAZ.although this BC in this generic form does not have the same side effects. I decided to just stop taking it. Within 3 days I was able to eat again and my blood sugar was once again normal. Within 5 days my hand and jaw pain was gone. This medicine could have killed me.it didn't work for me and could have killed me and retained permanent damage. I would say really because with it, as this BC has deadly side effects. If you get any of these effects stop taking the BC and talk to your doctor on different options because you don't want to have permanent damage.
