I went to this web site because I want to help my wife. She's been on Jolessa for 8 weeks now. As of this week, her heart has been "fluttering" for lack of a better word. She went to the ER room and they said basically that nothing's wrong with her but she is experiencing premature ventricular contractions (PVC's) which are not dangerous (according to the doctors). She asked the doc's if she should stop taking Jolessa and of course they said,"no."

We're wondering if anyone else is experiencing this feeling with this junk? My wife is 38 years old, healthy, never had heart problems or disorders. As of the past few weeks though,she's been feeling down in the dumps, sluggish and has a slight mode change.

If anyone is experiencing a change in heart rhythm, since taking Jolessa, please post it here. Thank you.

I thought I was going to lose my mind. I would just start crying for NO reason.I became extremely irritable and depressed with thoughts of suicide. I am a very happy person normally!! I developed really bad eczema, hives on and off and random swelling of the face and headaches. Not quite sure these are side effects but am going to find out. I went off of this 3 days ago and already feel more like myself again. Maybe it's just knowing that Im not crazy and that it's the hormones!! Thanks everyone for posting. You helped me figure this out!!

I don't know I have been on it for two weeks, now I have headache and yes I feel like my insides are twisting up inside of me don't know if its the medication or my endometriosis? I have cyst and fibroids also inside of me that might be shedding in size due to hormones? Don't know what to think for sure but I have been depressed lately more than usual. I thought it was me just thinking just my mind is messing with me but after reading these posts I figure It must be this jolessa s**t! Not sure if I'm going to stay on this for another cycle of piss.... BUT I need to take something for my REALLY BAD CASE OF ENDO? Does any one else with endo know of a better BC? I don't really like playing with different drugs in my body. I will feel better with dealing with one good/decent BC that can help my endo!!!PLEASE HELP!!!Don't know what to do!!!

I started taking Jolessa after having been off birth control for about 1.5 years. Previously I was on Mircette and didn't have any problems. Within a few days of starting Jolessa, I felt depressed and not myself. I felt like I was retaining water and felt 10 pounds heavier. I thought maybe my body had to get use to the hormones, but after 3 weeks of side effects, I couldn't take it anymore and went off it. Within a few days of stopping Jolessa, I felt like myself again. After reading many of these posts, I plan on trying ortho tri-cylcen lo, as it seems people have fewer side effects with that.
