No spotting, I like being able to control my periods, no moodyness, or depression or any other crazy symptoms. I love this product except, my sex drive is really low.

I started taking Junel for bad cramps, irregular and heavy periods, and just as birth control in general. I had no side effects, but the first time I got my period after I started I had horrible cramps to the point that I couldn't move. I decided to give it another month and I had bad cramps, but they weren't as bad as the ones the time before. I will give it another month, but if the cram ... Show Full Comment

I have been on birth control for about a decade now and this is by far the worst. I have been moody, no energy (taking naps for the majority of the day), basically I am either crying, sleeping, or screaming. I am going back to Jolessa.

My doctor switched me to Junel because my insurance stopped covering my Nuvaring (which I loved by the way). I am miserable on Junel! I am moody ALL the time, which isn't normal; low energy; ZERO sex drive; gained weight,it makes me feel hungry constantly; and lets not forget the spotting and dark discharge a week and half out of the three then followed by a full blown period.

I stuck it out for 4 months as recommended by the doctor, she is now switching me, but I have been truely miserable on this medication.

Just started my second month on this pill 2 days ago. First month I experienced headaches which are uncommon for me as well as a lot of mood swings, low sex drive, and an increase in breast size, which for me I'm not happy with especially since they feel swollen and tender. I decided to stick with it because this was the first pill I tried that didn't make me nauseous all the time. My peri ... Show Full Comment

Just started my second month on this pill 2 days ago. First month I experienced headaches which are uncommon for me as well as a lot of mood swings, low sex drive, and an increase in breast size, which for me I'm not happy with especially since they feel swollen and tender. I decided to stick with it because this was the first pill I tried that didn't make me nauseous all the time. My period came on the 3rd day during the week with no pills, was much lighter and less painful then usual and only lasted 3 days. Severe cramps were one of the main reasons I started taking this so this was a plus along with the fact that all the initial side effects disappeared during the no pill week. Now that I started the second pack it's starting to make me nauseous along with all the other side effects I had with the first pack. Going to try and stick it out for one more month to see if the side effects go away and if it starts to clear up my moderate acne. I haven't noticed any improvement or worsening of my acne since I started. May write another review with my progress.
