    Terrible, not for me!

 Subscribe to reviews

I had been taking Cerazette for approx 6 months and the only reason I decided to change was because at 35 I was tired of getting spots while I'd been taking it! My GP told me to try Marvelon and even though I'd read mixed reviews I thought I'd give it a go.
Within 2 - 3 days of taking this I felt like a totally different person. I was short tempered, felt drained, tired and anxious, I could eat for England and worse still my spots had got worse! During the next few weeks I went from someone who does 1 hour of circuit training each day to needing a sleep in the afternoon and having the most terrible trouble concentrating on my work. One of the side effects was that my boobs increased a little in size but that really is not worth putting up with all of the other things! I've out 4lbs on due to having a massive appetite and never feeling full, especially for starchy / sugary foods so I'll be off to Slimming World this week to try and get rid of that!!
I have just finished my first month and I have some of my Cerazette left, I think I'll go back onto those again.

    Proof, if ever it were needed that the "one size fits all" contraceptive doesn't exist. R.
