I love this birth control. I have been using it for years and my doctor changed me to Lutera due to my age. I was emotionally stable and had a regular period: 10 am every 4th Wednesday. It was great and I would recommend it to anyone looking for oral contraception.

Although I didn't get pregnant, I gained 100 lbs in a year on this drug. I have never been able to take it off. I"m glad its off the market.

Ever since I started using the pill I haven’t experienced any side effects so I would definitely recommend it for beginners like me

I experience the worst pms ever, nausea, bloating, gasses, headache, loss of appetite and a mouth full of saliva. I always think I'm pregnant, two months ago I bled 3 weeks straight

Great pill. First month on it I experienced nausea, tummy pains, dizziness but when I started the second month it's been amazing. My body is responding well, only thing is my periods have been painful and heavy still.. But great pill other than that!

This has been the best oral pill I've taken for my body. One time I missed a pill in the 3rd week and it started my period, but I havn't missed any other times and that 4th week my periods are light and better than when I am not on the pill.

Experienced no major side effects. Periods became predictable, less heavy, and shorter for the first time in my life. However, sources all over the web indicate Triphasil has been discontinued.
