Before I started using this I read these reviews and became horrified this was going to be the worst thing to happen to me, but I've been extremely fine with it no bad side effects at all

I've been taking birth control for 12 years and in the past 3 years been on Tri-Estarylla. CVS changed it and I assumed it would be the same has the one I had before. I was wrong. I didn't have any physical problems like most ladies and it did do its job..no pregnancies. I just started feeling off. I become more anxious, and depressed before my period. I thought this was normal. Until, my new doct...

I was also switched from Tri Sprintec to this horrible substitute. I am finishing out this pack and stopping immediately. I am exhausted and extremely depressed, both of which I was not experiencing before this poison. I also have broken out and have headaches and general discomfort. I cannot believe how quickly this has hurt me. Good bye tri-estarylla!

The pharmacy switched me from Tri-Sprintec to Tri-Estarylla. It has not been the same for me. I have been nauseous, bloated, had horrible breakouts on my face and gained 7 lbs in the two months of taking it. I called the pharmacy to switch me back but they said Tri-Sprintec is no longer made. I have called my doctor to try something else.

I've been using this for 4 months now and everytime I start a new pack I feel very nauseous, bad headaches and extremely tired. Calling my doctor to see if I can switch.

I used Tri-Sprintec before my pharmacist switched to this and I'm having a horrible time. It's like each month I have a new side effect. First month I had horrible mood swings, I was sad a lot and though about suicide a few times. Now I'm getting bad headaches every night and my breasts are really tender. My flow has also gotten heavier and a lot more painful.

I was told this was exactly the same as the birth control I was currently taking and it is definitely not possible. I was depressed, and had a unusually heavy period. switched back to my original the very next month and am feeling back to normal.
