I have been taking this pill for over a year now. First 2 weeks of the pill I do great; however, the last 2 weeks are terrible. It starts with mood swings, depression, irritability, constant hunger, bloating, breast tenderness, cramps (which I never experienced before). So as of this week I stopped taking it...

I have been taking Tri-Previfem since mid-November 2014. As birth control, it is effective. However, my emotional state has gotten to quite a bad place when it was nowhere near this before; my moods have worsened. It has seemed like a downward spiral. I have been experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, aggression, and, most recently, crying spells. This is not good for me, my significant other, o ... Show Full Comment

I have been taking Tri-Previfem since mid-November 2014. As birth control, it is effective. However, my emotional state has gotten to quite a bad place when it was nowhere near this before; my moods have worsened. It has seemed like a downward spiral. I have been experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, aggression, and, most recently, crying spells. This is not good for me, my significant other, or the people around me. The negative emotions do not only come on my period, but also at other times of the month. A few months ago, I began taking a female endocrine support supplement (Gynecrine) to help with my moods. This helps me a lot if I take extra, but if I take the normal amount, I still experience the side effects of Tri-Previfem. I do not plan on taking Tri-Previfem much longer.

This lovely pill also has caused me to feel bloated and most recently a yeast infection...haven't had one in years.

About a week into the pill, I had the worse cramps ever. I was in a fetal position at work with a make shift heating pad. This lovely pill also has caused me to feel bloated and most recently a yeast infection...haven't had one in years. I also have noticed that my contacts dry out more and I am not wanting to work out as much as I have been in the past. My NP said that "unfortunately the cramps are common." Naproxen sodium was the only thing that relieved the pain. I had heavy spotting for 3-4 days and excess vaginal discharge. I'm waiting to get the copper IUD (paraguard) in about a month. Long story short, not a fan of this BCP. PS: prior to tri-previfem, I was on Tri-Nessa and had no problems.
