I was recently prescribed Nortrel 1/35 28 for birth control, and while I understand that most side effects are minor, the list of serious side effects is quite concerning. Has anyone else had any serious side effects from this medication, how did you handle it, and did your doctor assist in your decision?

I got really bad cramps and nausea. I switched to a different pill and it was so much better. It’s all about trial and error.

I've heard so many horror stories about birth control. Just be careful and listen to your body, it knows best.

I’ve been on it for years and never had any issues. Everyone is different, so it's hard to say what will happen.

I started feeling really depressed after a few weeks, and my doctors said it could be the birth control. It was a little scary, but switching to a different pill helped.

I've been on Nortrel for a few months and haven't had any serious issues. Just some mild headaches and mood swings, but nothing too bad. I'd keep an eye out for any severe symptoms, though.

I felt a little spotty at first, but it went away after a few weeks. Just make sure to stay hydrated and take it around the same time every day.

I had a friend who had some serious side effects, so she switched to a different brand. Always good to talk to your doctor about what you're experiencing.

I had some really bad headaches and even some vision changes. My doctor switched me to a different pill and I feel much better now.
