I have been it on it now for almost a year and it does regulate your period and help with the cramps and decreases the flow. but for me it has made me very emotional and it has dropped my sex drive completely that is the negative thing.
I hate apri I feel really down, depressed, fat, my sex drive is getting sooo low which is not normal!!! I have so mych acne and i get super impatient with my boyfriend. I was on alesse and it had its problems, but apri is just so bad at least for the three months i've tried it... I've never been on marcelon but apri and marvelon are supposed to be the exact same
I'm 26 years old and been on BCP for thr first time seeing that i am now dealing with adult acne. Gave Apri a shot and lasted about 2 weeks before stopping it. At first everything was fine but after 1 week i started getting side effects. They were tolerable but annoying. At first i noticed crazyyyy heartburn. Went to the pharmacist to get something behind the counter cause tums didn't cut it. I also experienced mild nausea at times, felt very calm and emotionless, I noticed that I was becoming very emotional which was annoying me because i'm never like that. Oh and i also experienced vaginal dryness, never in my life have i ever had this problem but i'm guessing that's what hormones do. The only good thing that i loved about this pill was that it cleared my face up in only 2 weeks. My face and back acne disppeared, i had porcelain beautiful skin, i couln't stop starring at it. However, for all the side effects that i experienced, I couldn't bare with it much longer, the minute i felt depressed i just stopped taking it because everyone around me noticed that i was acting different. I'm going to ask my doctor to switch to a lower dose, hopefully my body will tolerate it more than Apri...
It made me very cranky within the second day. I cannot stand it!!
You won't get pregnant on it, but chances are you'll turn into the kind of person that none would want to be around.
