Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel
birth control
"This is the first ever experience I've had with extreme side effects from a medication. This has been the worst experience of my life. I've been taking it at 9:30 every night. I wake up in the middle of the night at 5:00 am every night with extreme nausea, something that I didn't experience before taking this. When I wake up in the morning I instantly feel dizzy and nauseous. This continues on throughout the day. Half way through the day the anxiety starts to take over. I start to experience shortness of breath, shaking, and light headedness. Once the panic attack ends, I get a headache more towards 5:00pm-6:00pm. This has been happening every day since I started this pill, and I'm just told to "keep pushing through.""
