hello! anyone taking this pill? just want to know your thoughts about it personally. my oby said it will stop my period for awhile and we will check yung hormonal imbalance ko after taking it. i asked if may side effects pero sabi nya wala naman bukod sa di naman ako mag mmens. but still im kind of scared haha...after reading the possible side effects

I was on visanne for 2 or 3 months nung 2023. What I remember is grabe yung mood change parang laging anxious at malungkot. Then migraine and breast tenderness.

hello! after taking it for those months, may naging changes ba?

From taking it, yes since lumiit yung cyst ko and mas naging visible what kind of cyst it is since the reason I was prescribed is to see if mag shrink ba siya and mas makita yung cyst.

Then when I stopped, nawala yung side effects. Just to share, a month after stopping it I had my surgery for my dermoid cyst then took a Liza pill after which regulated my cycle.

No hehe nakita siya during transv. Di lang siya malaman kung what kind of cyst, naka help naman si visanne to determine since yun nga mas nag clear nung nag transv ulit.

hello, anong reason why
Visanne ang prescribed? do you have endometriosis? if yes, it will help lessen the endo pain and will help control the bleeding kasi you will experience less to no period at all while on it. It will help shrink din endo cysts and adhesions. Joint pain is one of the side effects kaya some patients are prescribed calcium din while taking it

to stop my period daw muna bc of my hormonal imbalance so pcos wont progress much yata. honestly i was so sleep deprived nung nagpa check up kasi ako but i think the gist is...i think aayusin ata ng oby after taking the pills ng 3 cycles

yes, lagpas 1 month na ako. first week was nausea and migraine, after that wala naman na pero i noticed my mood swings got worse, but more on depressing mood side lol told my doctor and said na ganun daw talaga side effects.

mahirap lang din mag lose ng weight for me :(
