For Birth Control "Worst birth control pill I have ever been on. I’m just going to be blunt and state what it did to me. The water retention, bloating, and weight gain from water weight is horrible. My anxiety is uncontrollable now. I’m nauseous 24/7. I have acne all over my back and face now when I have had almost perfect skin my entire life. The mood swings and irritability are messing up my social and family life. I have zero motivation. I cry over nothing. My period lasts up to an entire month sometimes, and I have never skipped a single pill since I’ve been on it."

For Birth Control "I previously was on the birth control BC Kuervelo until I had a prescription filled at CVS. They informed me that they don’t have it there, so they switched me to Lillow. Since day one, I have been nauseous, cramping terribly. I started spotting on day one, as of now, it has turned into a flow that won’t stop. I got on birth control due to abnormal bleeding for two months. I feel like I’m reliving the nightmare."

For Birth Control "Lillow made me so sick. I took Portia for years with zero negative side effects. In March of 2020, CVS changed me over to Lillow, and it has been a nightmare ever since. When taking the pill, I feel like garbage every single day. Nauseated, headache, dizziness, basically like a mild flu (I actually described it to my doctor as feeling like being hungover - I don't drink - or how I felt in the first trimester of my pregnancy). I stuck with it for several months hoping that the side effects would subside, but they never did. This resulted in me missing several days of work and feeling absolutely terrible for six months straight. It took a while for me to make the connection, and I actually stopped taking the pill for a couple of months and felt great. The very day I started taking them again, I started feeling the side effects. I know there are hundreds of birth control pills, and each one affects a person differently, but this one was a nightmare for me. If I could give it a 0, I would."

For Birth Control "This pill is dangerous! I’ll start off by saying that if you suffer from anxiety and/or depression, this medication makes it so much worse! I had only been on this for three weeks for PCOS/unscheduled bleeding, and I was having the worst nausea I’ve ever had, I was having cluster headaches that lasted days, and dizzy spells that would hinder my daily activity. Not to mention the cramps I felt the whole time I was on it (with no period, by the way). This BC is unsafe, and I have no idea how it made it into the market to begin with."
