"I was given Levora because I was diagnosed with PCOS. I have been on a different pill about 2 years ago, and I went off due to side effects. I must say that Levora is horrible. Not only did it give me stomach cramps and bloating 30 minutes after taking it, but it also made me feel really, really tired just 2 weeks into my first set. I am also moody, depressed, and with absolutely no sex drive. So bad so that I can't even stand my husband touching me. So yeah, job well done on one hand: I will never get pregnant because I don't feel like having sex. At the end of this one month, I am going off the pill, and I will try more natural ways. Goodbye pills for the rest of my life!"

"Due to being diagnosed with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, my doctor put me on Yasmin but later switched me to Levora. This birth control has its pros and cons. Pros: I never got pregnant, even though I was a little inconsistent with the time I took it and sometimes would even forget. Cons: It did not help with my acne. I was easily irritated and would be depressed when my period was coming. It was very difficult to shed pounds and very easy to gain weight, so I had to be cautious with my food intake. I always had headaches and felt tired and lazy a lot of the time. Birth control affects everyone differently, but I would suggest trying another brand before trying this one."

"My experience with Levora has been amazing. The first month of taking it, I did get a lot of nausea, but that is something that comes with starting any new birth control. After my body got used to the medication, my acne started to go away, my periods were way less painful, my mood has been more stable, and I don't struggle with the usual PCOS symptoms that I originally had. I've been taking this medication for almost a year now, and I can't explain how much better my periods have gotten. I've tried many other birth controls for my PCOS, and none of them seem to work as well as this one. If you have PCOS, I definitely recommend you give this a try."
