Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel
birth control
"I've been on Daysee for about 3 months now and I've only had one week of no-bleeding the entire time. I've also been experiencing horrific cramps, acne, back pain, and moodiness. I know my insurance switched me because this is cheaper but it's extremely ineffective and not worth it. I'd rather go back to having my periods every 28 days instead of for 3 months straight. I even called my doctor and she said it's completely normal and that I shouldn't stop the pill. I was on Seasonique/Quasense for 4.5 years and never had problems like this (except when I was on strong antibiotics for several weeks, which I then expected some breakthrough bleeding). I even missed a few pills and never had more than a few spottings. It's absolutely ridiculous."
