User Reviews for Sharobel oral

I was a little afraid after reading reviews, but I've actually enjoyed this birth control. Im a month in, but so far it has worked great. I haven't had the weight gain, if anything it curbs my appetite a bit. No acne. My first period has been a lot smoother than before. It's still painful, but I'm not bleeding as bad as I used to. The only issue was it had my hormones raging for the first 2 weeks I started it. Other than that, it's been great!

Taking for endometriosis and has been life-changing. My pelvic pain has dramatically decreased during my day-to-day. I also lost 7 pounds during the first month of use.

I have been on this pill for one month and I feel dizzy/lightheaded constantly, with some depression and anxiety. Also, I feel very bloated and have gained some weight. I do not recommend.

I took this birth control because of breastfeeding my young one. I didn't have a period for 9 months, which was nice. Then I had 4 in 1 month. Seriously back to back, one would end and then 2 days later another one would start. Do not recommend. I would much rather have regular periods once a month than have that many so close. What a pain!

I starting taking shorabel shortly after my pregnancy to prevent another pregnancy from happening Iâ??m still on it, itâ??s been one year and I am not happy with it but I kept taking it for obvious reasons and I didnâ??t want to switch b/c I did not want it to mess with anything else. My pre baby weight was 140 and Iâ??m 5.1â? I weighed 170 at the 9 month mark, my weight never fluctuated so much as it does now always weighted 130-140 also my period was always on the spot 28 day cycle, my mood was never fluctuating from cranky to happy to emotional! I noticed at about the 2-3 month mark that I was not loosing my baby weight as I should have even though I was breast feeding and eating healthy my mood was good but horrible acne something I never had. I stopped breast feeding at 6 months and holly cow did I started gaining weight like a cow! My baby is now 1 year old and Iâ??m back to my nine month pregnancy weight!!!!! I eat clean no much of a sweets person, we go for walks! Iâ??m happy that the one year mark has come to stop on the birth control also it was my first time taking birth control ever so itâ??s something I will go off of. Mood swings like crazy! Periods back to back or non existent ( I have an alarm for it so I take it everyday at 3:30) horrible acne! And weight gain is a big ol B! Why did I keep taking because Im still a happy person inside no matter my appearance and I didnâ??t want to go haywire by switching I figured my body was used to it and I was at 6 months post pregnancy I said 4 more months and Iâ??m done!

I have had severe more acne and have had major mood swings, angry alot more often

I have been on birth control pills for almost 20 years. This is the first pill I've ever been on that has made me gain an incredible amount of weight! I have gained 20 pounds in 4 months! My periods are very irregular on this medication; my cramps are back; mood swings are back; I'm fat; I have no energy; and I get headaches all the time. I hate this medication. I never should have switched but the doctor I saw at Planned Parenthood thought I should be on a progestin-only pill due to my age (35, never a smoker). My regular gynecologist thought this was insane but kept me on it. I'm switching as soon as I make another appointment. Read More Read Less

And if I forgot yesterday's pill that I can do.?

I switched from a different birth control pill to this. At first, everything seemed normal and fine. However, it wasn't until the 2nd month I noticed a little weight gain. I wasn't sure if it was the pill or not so I ignored it. I did not get my period at all (which was nice), but I would have migraines here and there. I went off the pill to see how my body would react. I FELT GREAT OFF IT!! I lost all my gained weight and I was back to normal. I had amazing energy and no mood swings. I told my gyno that I was off it and she suggested that I go back on it...So I did... This time, everything was 1000x more worse than the first time I was on this pill. My migraines were more frequent, I gained 10 pounds in 1 month, and I had terrible mood swings. Everyone's body is different, but if you are having similar symptoms, I would highly recommend taking another pill. Read More Read Less

I haven't had any issues with this birth control. No weight gain and I do sometimes forget to take it on time but still no surprise pregnancy. Overall very satisfy with this mini pill. I am still currently breastfeeding and just two months ago I got my period, and its pretty regular a little longer than usual but no big deal.

I have been having heart palpitations due to this medication, do not take if you have a history of heart problems.

I am 46 and this is the only BC pill my doctor would consider at my age. I have been on this pill for 7 months and have not had any major side effects except for weight gain. No acne, no hair loss, no mood swings, nor abdominal issues. The only aggravation is the 3 hour window, however I have taken it faithful within 30 minutes of the same time each day. Overall I am please! PROS: No pregnancy CONS: 30 pound weight gain

i am taking this pill as a hormone therapy treatment. I have a discomfort and period for eight days now. I am worried and not happy.

Ever since I've been on it, my periods are a complete week long. For the first 3 months, I had spotting/ irregular periods. It also makes me bloated. The only reason why I'm still on it is because I'm breastfeeding.

i have had two spottings withing less than 1/1/2 months of taking Sharobel .And also withing this and and a half months, i got my period for 7 days straight.I have an appointment tomorrow to discuss it with my gyno
