Some may say this is not long enough to tell anything...I have been on Necon for 5 days and have gained 5.5 pounds. Since noticing the weight gain I have been trying to eat healthier and exercise more but the weight just keeps adding up, I am calling my doctor today to hopefully switch to something else. I am not willing to wait an entire month and 20 pounds later to stop

It made me depressed. I was on it for one year and once I switched to a different birth control pill (Tri-Levlen/Triphasil/Trivora) I returned to my normal self again and have been on this new pill ever since (4.5 years now).

I take Necon 1/35-28 for PMDD. It makes me able to function ten days before the start of my cycle. Without this pill every day, I am a bat flying out of hell mid-month, a puke factory at the beginning, and bed-ridden the week of my cycle, bleeding to death in pain. Best taken with food at night, to prevent nausea the next day.
