Hello choccake123, is Zoely something you’re looking into or have you been prescribed it?

I’ve been prescribed it, but waiting for my next cycle to start it

From the little research that is out there Yasmin is a far better contraceptive than Zoely. I find it bizarre that you have been prescribed Zoely.

My gyno said she’s prescribing it due to no bleeding while on it. I was on the implant before and have tried microgynon and mercilon, both which were not suitable for me so that’s why she’s recommended zoely instead but I’m a bit hesitant about it as thetes not much online at all

Can I ask why microgynon and met lion weren’t suitable for you?

I’ve found the below about Zoely, I hope you find them useful.

Hi there, zoely has actually been working for me! My moods better and I’m taking it back to back so No cramps either. But there is definitely little evidence out there Whivh does make it harder to judge.
