For Birth Control "I started taking this birth control Desogen about 5 months ago and ended up switching from pill club to Hey Doctor to order my birth control. I thought that the pills were the same, but I have had side effects that are unreal. My first period was extremely rough, as I don't normally have bad cramps, but this time was intense. The cramps lasted about three days and everything seemed fine. I was getting acne here and there but nothing too serious, but then the mood swings started. I have never experienced mood swings like this before, every emotion that I would feel would be heightened x10. I would burst in tears at even the thought of something unpleasant. It hurt my relationship tremendously because my bf didn't understand the change. I just hope it works better for anyone else that takes it!"

"I've been taking Desogen since I was 14 and I'm almost 20. I have never had any side effects. I'm very pleased with it. As long as I stay baby free, I'm happy!"

For Birth Control "I've been taking Desogen for a month now and my breasts have gotten a bit bigger and my skin has never been more clear, but I am a tad bit more emotional and it does occasionally make me vomit."

For Birth Control "Helped with my cramping and had no spotting but gave me large cystic acne. It took me several months before I realized desogen was the cause of the acne but once I stopped taking it, it went away."
