I really hated being on cerazette. It had the same effect on me- really tired all the time and bleeding. I bled every two weeks or so. It was a nightmare! I couldn't get on with the other mini pills as I was too disorganised to take it in a three hour window. In the end I stopped bfing partly so I could go back onto my normal pill (my dd was 13 months old, so I prob would have stopped anyway, but cerazette was def a factor).

I also bled every other week on it and had terrible spots with it. Gave it up after a couple of months.

I have taken it for about 18 months & don't like it.I don't bleed,but am tired,hair has fallen out,have bad skin,depression & no sex drive.I'd love to go back on Marvelon,which I had no problems on,but have been told that I can't,due to my age & haven taken it for more than 10 years.

That's right - my hair was fallling out as well! I got this little thin patch by my left temple which is only just growing back in now.
