This is perfect! It did not make me gain weight at all. The only difference I saw was my curves and boobs. I've stayed around the same weight and it made my periods only 3 days. It is definitely recommended!

Although this pill did a great job at keeping me from getting pregnant as well as relieving my debilitating monthly cramps, it caused me to feel nauseated every single day, all day. The worst side effect, by far, was the crippling depression that came along with this pill. I could barely find the motivation to get up. Would not recommend.

I was on microgestin for maybe five years. I switched because I wanted lighter periods.

I was on microgestin for maybe five years. I switched because I wanted lighter periods. I have been on nortel for a month, the first 3 weeks was fine but when I started the period pills I got horrible head aches which I have never had with or without birth control in my life. I'm 21. I only bled for one day which was nice but the headaches have not gone away and I am not even on the period pills anymore.. The doctor said to wait maybe three months before really deciding to switch but the headaches are bad and I hate having to wake up and take tylenol's everyday. I don't know that they really affect my mood I just wish the pain in my head would go away.
