Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel
"I've been on and off birth control for about 15 years, stopping to have my two kids, and I recently tried this one because I liked the idea of only 1 period every 3 months or so. Ha! 



First off, I've been spotting throughout. I'm on week 7, and I'm sick to the point that it's debilitating. Anxiety attacks, heart palpitations, constant nausea, diarrhea, stomach cramps, tremors, the whole shebang of misery. I was blaming it on a stomach bug my kids had, and I think I had that for a couple of days, but now it's been weeks, and I'm worse, definitely not better. 



I'm switching back to my last birth control that never made me feel this way (Blisovi). I've been on at least 6 different pills over the years, and this is absolute misery."
