I took this mainly for birth control for a year. it worked. I never got pregnant. But the side effects were miserable.

I took this mainly for birth control for a year. it worked. I never got pregnant. But the side effects were miserable. I was nauseous at times, so I recommend taking it at night and not waking too early the next day. My breasts grew a whole cup size. They were swollen and tender most of the time. My periods were like clock work, although VERY PAINFUL and HEAVY. My skin cleared up significantly, something I wish I could hold on to. I have been off the pill for a month now and just got my first period since birth control and itâ??s very light, painless, today is the third day and it might be my last day for this cycle. Something I never experienced on Sprintec. My acne is coming back though, rapidly. I also did gain weight on this pill. More than 10lbs so be ware. And I was miserable. My main reason for coming off this pill was the depression. I couldnâ??t handle it anymore. I was also starting to get lumps in my breasts and I attribute that to all the extra hormones in me. Overall, take it for the birth control, that part was flawless, but please heed the warnings. This is a hard drug to deal with at its best.

Its been 4-5 days on sprintec. I have a reoccurring alarm to remind me to take it. I take it at night since im usually up duting the night time. No serious side effects. But i can say after my 2 day of taking it i wake up extremely hungry the next morning like serious hunger pains like i havent ate in days but other than that its going good.

Overall Sprintec is a good form of birth control. All my periods came and it did itâ??s job preventing pregnancy. I had one problem which was recurring yeast infections, Iâ??ve NEVER had a yeast infection until i was on this pill. Mostly occurring when i had sex, with a condom it still happened. They were absolutely horrible to go through. So Iâ??m changing my brand and seeing if i ... Show Full Comment
