I've been taking Leena Tablets 28s for about 6 months now, and while I've had a generally positive experience, I've noticed some side effects that I'm not sure what to make of. I've experienced changes in menstrual periods, including heavy bleeding and spotting, which has been a bit concerning. I also recently had a mild headache that lasted for a few days and was accompanied by some dizziness, which made me wonder if I should be worried about high blood pressure. Additionally, I've been feeling a bit more depressed than usual, and I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence or if it could be related to the medication. The depression is the main reason I'm here. Has anyone else had similar issues like these? Have you experienced any side effects like allergic reactions, liver problems or concerns with blood clots? Any advice would be appreciated.

If you experience any side effects, contact your doctor immediately. Don't wait it out and see if it gets better on its own. Blood clots, liver problems, and allergic reactions are all things that can get serious quickly.

I stopped taking Leena Tablets because I developed a severe allergic reaction. I had a rash and my whole body felt like it was on fire. It was scary, but I'm glad I sought medical help immediately. I switched to a different birth control method and haven't had any issues since.

Severe depression can be really scary. For all of us, make sure to keep track of your mental health as well as your physical! If you're feeling it, talk to your doctor.

Leena Tablets have been a game-changer for me, but the side effects are real. I've had headaches and some weight gain, but nothing too bad. Just make sure to stay hydrated and keep an eye on any serious symptoms. Always better safe than sorry.

You guys should really keep an eye out for any signs of liver problems. I got a fever with chills and my doctor said it was because I was having some liver issues. Scary stuff, but I'm all good now.

I talked to my gyno about the Leena Tablets and she said that the dark patches on my skin were due to the hormones. She recommended using sunscreen and avoiding sun exposure. Works well for me, and the anxiety about the patches has died down.

I've been on Leena Tablets for a while too and have experienced some changes in my menstrual cycle. I had extended spotting for about 3 months, but after talking to my doctor, we decided to lower my dosage and it's been better since then. I'd recommend keeping a log of your side effects and discussing them with your doctor. It's important to keep communication open.

I've had some pretty bad stomach cramps and nausea, but after discussing with my doctor, I changed to a different pill and it got better. Don't think you have to just deal with it.

These headaches sound concerning. Please, please, please go to the doctor and get checked out. Sometimes, you can get adjust your dosage or switch to a different type of birth control pill altogether. Blood pressure can be a huge issue with these types of drugs. 70% of the time, it works every time!

Stop taking the pills immediately if you experience ANY signs of blood clots. Shortness of breath, chest pain, swelling in your limbs. Its scary and can be life-threatening if you're not careful.
