I was switched to this medication having taken Kariva for the past few years. I had terrible side effects including severe headaches, constant low grade temperature, increase of loss of hair and increased fatigue. In addition, my monthly periods were very spotty and not as regular as when I was taking Kariva or Mircette. I ended up taken myself off this medication.

I have been satisfied with the this birth control as it's effectiveness goes. But my periods are still never on time and I have been taking this for over a year now. Also I wanted to know if anyone else had this problem, I feel that my sex drive is way lower than it was when I stated taking it. I wonder if that is a side effect of this birth control.

Like many other people, I was on Mircette, then Kariva, now Azurette. I have the same negative side effects with Azurette as I've had with all other types of pills (nausea, headaches). I've been very pleased so far though - the length of my periods has been cut in half and my libido has noticiably increased.
