Cerazette made a dragon of me!
Review of Cerazette Contraceptive Pill by Queggys88

Advantages: No pregnancy or periods
Disadvantages: Horrendously vulgar moods and skin

I've tried Cerazette for a month twice this year and it's just been horrendous for me! So many side effects and nothing really positive to say for it other than no periods! I was on Ovysmen for 5 years previously but I was taken off because they don't li ... Read review

Thanks for your recommendation Rachael. Ovysmen, like Cilest and Dianette is combined and like you I found it was a breeze. I was a bit grumpy for a few weeks at the start but nothing like Cerazette! They won't let me take it anymore because I'm overweight and forced me on POP (namely Cerazette) instead. by Queggys88
Try asking about Cileste or Dianette, I had no real side effects with either. Rachael. by kevin121

Nexplanon would be ideal apart from the greasy skin and acne!
Review of Nexplanon by beautybuff33

Advantages: more than 99% effective contraception for 3 years, works immediately if inserted at correct time
Disadvantages: can give you terrible skin. can cause problem bleeding, no protection against STI's.

I had Nexplanon fitted by a local GP trained in how to do this. The main reason was having loose stools due to IBS and being concerned at contraceptive failure with the pill. It was a straightforward procedure and thanks to the local anaesthetic, I felt n ... Read review

Qlaira (estradiol, dienogest) - This pill is honestly heaven sent

Works as a contraceptive because you never want sex!!!
Review of Cerazette Contraceptive Pill by Bettyboopercooper

Advantages: It has a 12 hour window
Disadvantages: Mood swings, greasy hair and skin, spots, no sex drive at all!

I went on cerazette because I cannot take the combined pill due to migranes, ditto the injection and implant... I tried mirena coil which was ok but made me spotty and did not help my periods unlike many women. So I was offered cerazette and thought a min ... Read review

A really thorough review with great easy on the eye formatting. There really is nothing left out here, plenty of detailed explaination on this choice of contraceptive. What a relief to many that have chosen this that 'the injection' is only 'once every 12 weeks'! :~) E from me xXx by Deesrev

Rubbish
Review of Durex Fetherlite Ultra Fine Condoms by MisterSchlong

Advantages: Nice box which you can re-use as a pencil holder
Disadvantages: too tight, condom doesnt roll down properly, bad lubrication, once one your shlong gets strangled

Maybe I was just unlucky BUT here it goes:- 1. They are very very tight. My shlong is average to large (in any case, no lady ever complained of the opposite) and the condom seems smaller than others. When I say small, I mean boa-constrictor type small. 2. ... Read review

Cerazette is a mini pill, meaning it is progestogen only, and it works in three ways: Firstly, it prevents the release of an egg from the ovaries. Secondly, it thickens the mucus at the neck of the womb, making it harder for the sperm to enter. And thi ... Read review
