Yasmin worst pill ever
Advantages: None Disadvantages: Severe blood clots, numerous ppl I know in the same position, Dr says that clot was caused by Yas
...08, my doctor prescribed me Yasmin in April 2008. A few days after the beginning of my 2nd month (June) I developed a sore swollen leg. I was diagnosed with a severe ileo femeral DVT in my right leg, going from my knee to my chest, i had a localized clot in my other thigh and a PE to the lung. I never had any problems with any of the other pills that I was on going back years. I know numerous people in Ireland were I live that they have had the same ... ...that it was the Pill that was the cause of my clot.Thanks to this pill and the clots that followed, I am now on Warfarin for life, and the prospect hanging over me of having no more children due to the severity. I also have a filter fitted. Please please have a full check up before getting this pill prescribed. I would not wish what I went thru on my worst enemy.. ...

the implant Is it still effective after 2 years instead of 3
Advantages: very effective,esaygoing regarding remembering contraception Disadvantages: i fell pregnant after it had been in 2 years
...the needle beforehand)! Once the implanon was inserted it felt rather strange for a day or two but healed up fine with no bruising or pain. The implanon has been highly effective as a form of contraception for me especially as I do not need to worry about remembering to use contraception (especially as I am in a long term relationship. However since just after I had the implant in for 2 years I fell pregnant and miscarried before i even knew. The ... ...and was not very helpful. However I have recently got pregnant again and miscarried. Ever since it had been in for two years it seems to be less effective. Has anyone else had this problem? As I am considering going to get it replaced earlier than it is meant to. Its due to be taken out in March but as anyone can imagine I cannot carry on this process till then. ...

8 years on cerazette
Advantages: No periods for 8 years (fantasic!) Disadvantages: Depression, 4 stones weight gain, mood swings, greasy hair, tiredness, zero libido.
...to my new lifestyle not cerazette so I kept on taking it. (strangely now that doctors just give the pill out they don't even want to check my blood pressure!) So the years rolled by and I learned to live with my new depressive, mood swinging and 4 stone heavier self. I graduated from university and moved in with my fiance (who surprising enough stuck with me throughout!) We both got jobs and settled into a 'normal' lifestyle. The lifestyle related ... ...see if it was the cerazette which was affecting me. I agreed to a three month time off the drug. At first there was no change then after 3/4 weeks i felt 'lighter' I felt like something had slotted back into place in my head. I felt happy!!! The arguments stopped, my sex drive returned (typical!) and I felt back in control again. That was until I started my first period in 7 years! I honestly thought I was in labour it was so horrific I was out of ...

Microgynon 30
Advantages: What true advantages?? Disadvantages: I believe that this product has been a major contributor to my wife's breast cancer.
My experience with this poison is that my wife took this pill for 15 to 20 years,,she developed breast cancer around two years ago, the most aggressive form,, my wife became severely ill during the first Chemotherapy session as well as a Mastectomy of her right breast, then around 18 months later, the cancer had come back, it went through her Lymphatic system and subsequently spread to all parts of her body,,which led to more Chemotherapy, which ... ...die. she stopped taking the Chemo because she just couldn't cope with the severe side effects, Irene was a gentle, loving and caring mother of three, the most easy to get along with kind of person I have ever had the pleasure of being married to. Thursday at 3:17 am,,irene died in my arms. I totally dislike the whole structure of the medical fraternity in general that says there's no cure,,and yet when somebody comes up with treatment that works ...

No Pain No Gain This ones not for the men
Advantages: The end result was worth it no monthly periods Disadvantages: There is some discomfort involved
...was advised to have a myrena coil fitted, not for contraceptive purposes but to help with they symptoms of my endometriosis. I wasn't worried at all about having a fitted as all i had heard at most, at the time, was that some people hadn't gotten on very well with it. I had my 1st one fitted at my local family planning centre. I am not going to lie, this was a painful experience, when it was being inserted into my womb I did feel painful cramps. ... ...or ibuprofen before coming, which i hadn't, as apparently I should have been advised to take this before hand!. It was 5 years ago since I had it first fitted and I did suffer a lot with stomach pains over the next 12 months and over that 12 months my monthly period began to stop. For me it was a rough 12 months but I persevered and I am now glad that I did. I haven't had a proper period for over 4 years and once the mirena completely settled into ...
