Carazette Mini Pill (pop)

Hi...i had been on this pill for over a year...i feel this is a great pill as it only contains one hormone (so I'm told) -No babie
-No mood swings
-No weight gain
-NO PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER -After being on the pill my periods stopped complicity felt a bit unconformable with this as like to have a period to be sure that I wasn't pregnant. This was the only reason for changing my pill.

-Had a slight problem with skin when on holiday that doctor believed to be caused by the pill. Thought this was a great pill.liked the fact that you had to take it everyday...simple.Have now changed but am thinking about changing back to that pill.

I was on microgynon for a few years and I would put on alot of water weight some times up to a stone which I got used to becuase I knew when I was due on but then I started getting a red blotchy rash all up my back
It would come and go.

My doctor changed me over to cerazette desogestrel mini pill and I lost about half a stone but I didn't have a period for a month and then I had about 9 in the next month - on for a couple of says - off on just for a night - off again - on for a week
no pattern at all
the same for the next 2 months
so I went back to my old pill- the rash isn't back but I have skin like I did when I was 14 and i've put more weight on and I feel like i'm loads heavier

I was not preg - I had no idea - my test said I wasn't
I lost weight
No water weight on periods - may have been because they were so random
increased sex drive - when I was on mycro I didn't have one.
I had no idea when my next period was going to be
how long it was going to last for
and when it was coming back
I had no idea if I was preg or not
It's hard to say
I liked it sometimes and it worried me at other times
If I had bled normaly, it would have been perfect

Have been on the mini-pill for about 6 months now as I was unable to use the normal pill. Took about a month for my hormones to adjust but since then have had absolutely no problems at all
Have not had a period which is a weight of any womans mind, no weight gain, moodswings etc. No Period
No Weight Gain
No Moodswings
No Pregnancy
Sometimes difficult to take every day Has been absolutely brilliant for me

I recently had a bubby and have had very negative exepriences with the pill, but needed to try something so I wouldn't get pregnant again. I am currently on the mini pill and finding the constant bleeding a drag as well as the cost in sanitary wear. However, there are some good points. These are my personal experiences, so of course yours may vary.
No mood swings. (V important for me)
No weight gain.
No depression or suicidal thoughts.
No unplanned pregnancy. Constant bleeding. I guess I don't have to worry about romantic nights because I can't have any. Not bad but I think I'm probably going to go and try something else.

I went on the mini pill after suffering from headaches and previously having a migraine that affected my speech. The doctors were concerned, so thought the mini pill would help (seen as previously had been on 4 other combined pills, each with their own problems). I tried 2 different mini pills and neither of them suited me. I was warned that my periods may be irregular or wouldn't come at all, but after pretty much having a constant period for about 4 months I couldn't cope anymore. It wouldn't have been so much of a problem if I hadn't been in a relationship, but it still would have been ludicrous. After trying 6 contraceptive pills that didn't work I decided to give my body a break. 6 months on, I've only had 2 periods (and no i'm not pregnant) and my skin is in terrible condition (acne on face, chest and back). So I've decided to give the contraceptive pill another go and have just started taking Dianette, which I'm hoping will clear my skin up. > No weight gain
> No mood swings
> No headaches, nausea etc > Constant bleeding
> 6 months after coming off it my periods are still irregular I have been on 6 different contraceptive pills and even though this didn't make me feel ill as such, the constant period did make me feel down and I was just getting fed up with the whole situtation, hence taking a complete break for 6 months. I can't see why you would go on the mini pill, if your periods are going to be irregular. It is a nightmare socially (holidays, romantic nights in etc) and gives no indication of pregnancy.

I was on this pill for around a year, my first pill. There were none, minus the lack of babiew Constant periods
Depression
Crying at nothing
Panic attacks
Boobs got EVEN bigger
Arguments with people I loved Just no. no no no

Was on the mini pill for 3 months. Did not get pregnant
Did not have a period or thrush Had headakes for the first month
Takes a long time for your periods to return after coming off the mini pill, really messes up your fertility. So if your planning to start a family come off this pill a year before you wont to concieve. This is a eastrogen only pill, so you dont get mood swings, or feel your going crazy like on microgynon 30. The main reasons why i came off it was because i did not like not having a period. I was worried about the effects on my fertility.
