I've been thinking about switching to Jaimiess Tablets 91s, an extended-cycle birth control pill. It's supposed to mean fewer periods, as it is all active pills for 84 days and then 7 days with low-dose estrogen. The side effects look manageable, but the list is quite long. Has anyone tried it? I'm curious about your experiences, especially if you've had issues with migraines. It seems like there's a risk of worsening migraines so that's a bit concerning. Thanks everyone!

I've never had issues with the pill, but it's always good to take precautions. Can't imagine my life without it, though.

Has anyone else had issues with weight gain? I'm not sure if I want to risk it.

I've been on Jaimiess for about two years now, and overall, it's been a positive experience. However, I did notice some changes in my mood, particularly increased irritability. I'm not sure if it's due to the pill or just general stress, but it's something to keep in mind. It seems to help my period cramps and has even helped with my acne. I find the side effects to be minor compared to the benefits of less frequent periods, though. I know it helped me with cramps at least. I've never experienced UTI issues with it at least. After two years I feel like I have a bit of a better idea of my body and hormones.

I switched to Jaimiess from a different extended-cycle pill, and my skin cleared up almost immediately. I've heard the hormonal changes can cause skin issues sometimes, but I had the opposite experience, which was a nice surprise. I did, however, get some mood swings for the first couple of months, but they leveled out eventually. I've also never experienced UTI's since using it. So worth it!

I've been on the pill for years and have never had issues, but the allergic reactions in the description of Jaimiess worry me.

I'm curious about the extended-cycle pills. Have any of you tried other brands, or is this your first time?
