Have any of you tried Vestura, the birth control pill that contains ethinyl estradiol and drospirenone? I've been considering it for both birth control and acne treatment, but I'm hearing mixed reviews. I'm particularly curious about the side effects and how people have managed them. I've heard the pill can help with acne, but I'm also wondering about more serious side effects—has anyone experienced any of the more serious issues such as blood clots or liver problems? Any insights or advice would be super helpful!

Been on it for 3 years. The only side effect I've had is weight gain, which can be frustrating but I've managed it with diet and exercise. I've also noticed lighter periods and fewer cramps.

I switched to Vestura from another birth control pill because of the acne benefits, and it's been great so far. The side effects were minimal, but I do wish the package came with more info on the warning signs of a blood clot.

I stopped my pill when I was diagnosed with high blood pressure. Investigate this drug if you have a history of high blood pressure or heart disease. Can be dangerous otherwise.

Vestura gave me a headache after taking it every time. It got better after a month off. However, I had severe migraines with a different pill. Perks to Vestura here!

I've been on Vestura for about a year now, and I've noticed some mood swings and slight weight gain, but nothing too bad. The acne benefits have been worth it for me. I also noticed I have less PMS and my period is lighter now

I've been on Vestura for about 6 months now, and it's been a game-changer for my acne. I had mild breakouts before, and now they're almost non-existent. As for side effects, I experienced some nausea initially, but it went away after a couple of weeks. I also had some spotting between cycles, but my doctor said that's pretty common at first. Definitely talk to your doctor about any concerns you have before starting

My doctor recommended it for my acne. The pill has made a huge difference in my skin and irregular periods. It’s been a game-changer.

I've heard Vestura can cause issues with blood clots. Is this something anyone has experienced or should we be concerned.
