I'm on Cerazette, anyone else take it and did you get on ok?

Sorry I took the mini pill for a while but was Micronor. Tbh I felt fine on it but have decided not to go back to oral contraception since having DS.

thanks sunshinemummy, nice to hear something positive Are you going for something different, coil? I don't want anymore children as I'm 39 and bf and I have 5 boys between us

Nope using Persona! I know it's risky but tbh I don't mind if I get pregnant again!

i was taking cerazette for 8months after birth of my son. haven't had any problems, bit of hairloss to begin with although don't think its a side effect of pill. i haven't gained any weight but think it may have slowed down weightloss, still have a stone to get back to pre-pregnancy weight. I think every type of oral contraception comes with possible side effects.

Glad to hear you're ok on the mini pill Ang Yes, hairloss is probably just linked to post birth.
I'm on day 2 now and feel a little light headed at times but I'm bound to feel something with hormones.
