My girlfriend has been taking Quasense for 6 weeks now. She went on it because her period was all whacked out. The first couple of days I noticed the Extreme Mood swings, and Severe Nausea in the morning. The Nausea went away after a week or so. She complained of being dizzy is uncomfortable with the acne she is getting and weight she has gained. She is getting depressed and feeling tired all the time. We are busy people always doing something, But she just doesn't have the energy anymore. As the weeks went by her moods are getting worse and she is having extreme stomach cramps and began spotting. Which shouldn't be happening for another two months. This Pill sucks. I'm tired of seeing her in so much discomfort.

This is crazy! I'm so glad I found this! I have had the weight gain and lack of sex drive, too! Then it was a vicious cycle because I was depressed about gaining weight and feeling bad b/c I didn't want to have sex with my b/f and would gain more weight from the depression! I'm not refilling my prescription and really hope to see some major changes soon! I've gotten back into the swing of my work out routine, so hopefully I can drop them as fast as I put them on!

I'm in the same boat with quite a few: Uncontrollable mood swings and increased irritability, depression and anger. I don't sleep very well and am exhausted after a few hours of being up. I haven't had any acne problems, but I don't like the surprise periods I've gotten. They said they're not supposed to happen (for sure after the first two or three months) and I've been on it for almost six months and I get random periods that last for two weeks. I've gained almost 20 pounds too. This is the first birth control I've been on, and I'll tell ya, it's not fun!

I have only taken the generic, but just realized that I have not been able to loose weight after having my baby. I also have had headaches and diarreha. I have had anxiety and depression. I have been to the dr. many times trying to figure out what is wrong with me. I have had chronic fatigue as well. I think this pill may be the reason i feel so bad. Has anyone else had these side effects?

I'm so relieved I found this site! I've been on Quasense for TWELVE DAYS and I am in a living hell, I feel like a prisoner in my own mind. Ever since I started taking these pills my mood has plummeted. So severely I had to see a psychiatrist! I am not generally a sad person, so when I realized I was constantly depressed for a week straight, I thought of what had changed just recently, and what do you know? This is the pill from hell. Today is the day I decided to just stop taking them all together.
