3 Answers
whats everyones experiences with cilest (the pill) been like? i heard very mixed reviews on it before i went on it. im now on my 21st day and all seems fine. no weight gain, no mood swings and bigger boobs :) iv never had particulrly good skin because everytime i was due on it would come up a bit but the nurse reccommended this one because although it initially flares slightly, eventually cilest also clears the skin up. has anyone found this also?

They didn't agree with me anyway though - made me feel quite nauseous so I moved on to Loestrin but I know others who still happily take Cilest. A friend of mine told me that she went crazy on Loestrin - turned into a total banshee on the high dose. I wasn't aware that you got high/low dose but my doctor had prescribed low dose anyway. I can't take the pill at all just now because I am still breastfeeding and I know that they say that you can take the mini pill but I wonder how safe it is ie transferable to breast milk. I don't even take any painkillers. If this pill works for you though stick with it. I miss the pill. I'm curled up with a hot water bottle just now in agony - the pill always lessened the effects.
