After switching to this pill and taking it for 5 months I became very tired, moody and developed a blot clot in my thigh. I have been on other birth control pills and none of them made me feel the way this one did. I am lucky the blood clot didn't kill me. I would not take this pill.

I have been on birth control for 4 years and just recently switched to this one. I have been on it for 3 months and absolutely hate it. It has completely lowered my sex drive; I am super tired all the time, and have major anxiety. Also I have gained about 5 pounds, and have not been able to get it off.

I have always been extremely in to working out and exercise 5 days a week and yet I can’t loose these 5 pounds. The first 3 weeks of taking this drug my whole body felt tight, water retention.

I really like femcon, it has worked out really well for me! I have had less nausea, headaches & my period are shorter & lighter! If you do miss 1 pill you will start bleeding, so it reminds you very much if you forget to take them the right way.

I have been on Femcon for 2 months and finally demand to be taken off. I have gained over 12 pounds. I broke out really badly. I was emotional, from weight gain. My tongue felt thick making it hard to swallow. Always feel exhausted. Have had pressure on the temple area. Knees and ankles have been in pain and irritated. My periods have been long.

I have been on Femcon for 2 months and finally demand to be taken off. I have gained over 12 pounds. I broke out really badly. I was emotional, from weight gain. My tongue felt thick making it hard to swallow. Always feel exhausted. Have had pressure on the temple area. Knees and ankles have been in pain and irritated. My periods have been long. I have had heavy spotting throughout the last 2 months that make it seem as though my period never stops! After all of the above and seeing more reviews on medications.com I have concluded this is not safe to be on. Who ever thought that chewable birth control was a good idea anyway?
