Introduction
for those who want to put on weight - this is the pill for you! three days after kicking off my first pack - i felt bloated. i thought it was just the heat - having been in the tropics then. then, i piled on some serious weight. i exercise regularly, i watch what i eat (i even calorie count) and would you know - i put on 10 lbs in 6-7 days! and how low was my self-esteem because of it!
then there was the issue of spotting. i was spotting for a good 2 weeks.
then when i finally stopped the course and got my period - the bleeding was quite heavy - from my 2 tampon changes every day to 4-5 tampon changes/daily!
and it's done nothing for my acne either.
i'm switching back to femodene
Good Points
i may sound so bitter - but is there any??!!?!?
Bad Points
weight gain - almost overnight!
continuous spotting
heavy bleeding

Introduction
I went on to Logynon because I was under the impression that the Depo Provera injection had made me put on a few small pounds. What did I know?!

When I began taking Logynon, I have put on more weight even though I lead an active lifestyle in all respects. I have always been slim and this pill seems to have undone all this good work slightly. I have a fairly healthy diet in which I don't even eat meat and never eat junk food, and I have put on, then lost between a stone and half a stone.

Logynon has suppressed my sex drive almost to the point on non existence, and has also given me a hell of a lot of spotting, which is highly inconvenient.

I am off to the doctors at my earliest convenience to change the damn thing. One thing though I suppose is that I am not pregnant! And for that I am thankful!
Good Points
Not Pregnant
Pack has days written on it for aid of memory
Bad Points
Regular spotting
Awful stomach cramps
Terrible mood swings
Lack of libido
Weight gain
The Verdict
The worst pill I have ever used. Who wants a pill which causes spotting on such a regular basis!

I would not recommend it.

Introduction
I've been on Logynon for over 2years since i was 16.
At first i did put on some, but not alot of weight which soon went after 2 or 3 months so wasnt a problem.

I've never encountered any problems when putting 2 packs together and thankfully has never let me down in terms of the contraception.

I never really had heavy periods in the first place so i cant see much differce to the flow/length of my periods.
Good Points
* Safe
* Easy to swallow - (I'm personally not very good with tablets but these are fine)
* No weird side effects such a mood swings
* Can easily put two packets without spotting or other problems like that
Bad Points
* None that I can think of, aside from the initial small weight gain
The Verdict
I'm glad I used this pill and will continue to for some time.

Introduction
I'm a Logynon fan, and really wishing I hadn't changed from it.
Good Points
No babies!
Horny as hell
Feels very natural to be on, with no mood swings
The phased doses more closely mimic your natural cycle
Bad Points
I'm told it has a slightly higher failure rate than some other brands. Although that's a tiny percentage of a tiny percentage.
The Verdict
Highly recommend it. Wish I was back on it, in fact.

Introduction
I was on this pill 2 and a half years ago and it was shit for me. I am a very tall and skinny girl and when i was on this i felt fat moody and bloated. When ever i looked at myself in a picture i always thought i looked fat in it, until i released that i really was! I changed to yasmin and that helped me lose all that excess weight (5kg) though made my boobs stay large (yay). Stopped being moody and was overall good.
Good Points
NONE!
Bad Points
Fat
Moody
Bloated
The Verdict
Try it, it could work for you. But if you notice symptoms get off it straight away!
