I am 1week into taking it. Feeling very tired all the time. Now my vaginal area feels like a yeast infection is coming. Don't think this is going to work well.

I have been taking this pill for approx 6 months. I was nauseated for the entire first month. After that, no negative side effects AT ALL! Positive side effects - increased sex drive, I can pinpoint period to the day, light to moderate bleeding, and shortened period - approx 3 days.
