Within 10 minutes of taking the pill, I'm totally green! I'm reading the comments below and I noticed that no one has mentioned nausea, has anyone experienced this within the first http://www.medications.com/effect/view/26014 Mon, 24 Sep 2007 05:02:14 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/23821 I'm not 100% certain that Alesse has been causing my major health issues recently, but after going through all other tests, my doctor has suggested I stop taking it. I pray that it is the answer. I have been on Alesse for two years, (this past Aug 2007) http://www.medications.com/effect/view/23821 Fri, 21 Sep 2007 23:06:23 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/23783 can i get red itchy eyes while in alesse http://www.medications.com/effect/view/23783 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 13:42:43 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/22689 I've been on Alesse now for 4 months and just in the past month and a half I've noticed the terrible side effects it's been causing.

But now I am highly doubting this. I was on some heavy birth control quite a few years back and it led to severe panic attacks. So I was switched to yasmin, which seemed to help, and I had http://www.medications.com/effect/view/17752 Tue, 31 Jan 2006 18:30:43 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/12810 This was my second day on Alesse and my second day ever on brith control. I was fine the first day, but later on today after taking the pill I started to get a horrible headache that hurt my whole head all the way around.

I have experienced constant abdominal cramping and my hair has thinned out considerably. I don't recommend Alesse. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/8927 Thu, 19 May 2005 15:26:11 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/8912 I have been on Alesse for about 3 years and I like it hands down compared to some other pills that I have tried. I tried Diane-35 which turned me into a psychocrazy lady who wanted to drop out of school and just cry all day. Then I tried Marvelon which m http://www.medications.com/effect/view/8912 Tue, 19 Apr 2005 12:28:45 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/8658 chronic yeast infections....MONTHLY. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/8658 Sat, 20 Nov 2004 12:39:29 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/6615 I started taking Alesse over a year ago. The first month I was extremely dizzy. I felt sick all the time, but I attributed that to my low tolerance for perscription meds anyway. I thought everything was fine, until I joined a community on livejournal ca http://www.medications.com/effect/view/6615 Mon, 25 Oct 2004 11:34:52 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/6297 I took Alesse for 1.5 years and I liked it for the most part. It helped clear my skin and my periods were really light. I had no mood swings, irritability, or PMS symptoms. But I also had NO sex drive and my hair started thinning. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/6297 Tue, 27 Jul 2004 17:04:15 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5585 I'm into my second week of Alesse, and started a full period. My regular period is due again in 2 weeks!!! How frustrating!! Plus, I've been VERY irritable; biting everyone's heads off. I hate these pills.

I never remember any side effects in the beginning. But then I started having light , but continuous breakthrough bleeding. My nurse put me on Yasmine. At first I didn't realize I was haing side effects until they got worst: http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5542 Thu, 22 Jul 2004 10:10:49 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5508 I'm on my 11th day of my period with no end in sight. VERY heavy bleeding, headache, the worst cramps I've had in my life, sore breasts, moodiness. This is only my first month on it, but definately not fun so far. http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5508 Thu, 22 Jul 2004 06:09:33 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5507 I was on Alesse for 3 months. My first 2 months went swimmingly- no side effects. But my third month was when they hit- headaches, cramping, and a heavy period for 2 weeks!!! http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5507 Sun, 11 Jul 2004 06:39:40 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5377 Does no one have a great number of side effects form Alesse? My doctor switched me to Yasmin (which I haven't yet started because I had a few packs of Alesse remaining) because I complained about moodiness/crankiness that is so sudden and abrupt that I ju http://www.medications.com/effect/view/5377 Tue, 27 Apr 2004 15:37:07 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/4551 HEAVY HEAVY breakthrough bleeding that won't stop. I hope that after the first month this will go away.

I guess the estrogen wasnt strong enough for me or something because I have had very heavy bleeding at various times throughout the past 2 months and I have only been on it for three months. That and I have been extra moody http://www.medications.com/effect/view/2545 Mon, 16 Jun 2003 15:17:05 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/2373 After using Alesse for about 7 or 8 months, my hair has thinned out.
