Rigevidon and migranes
I am into my third month of taking
Rigevidon
but noticed that I started suffering from migraines. They wake me in the early hours (3am, 4am) and I can't go back to sleep. Spent all weekend in bed - never had such a suffering (apart from Endo pain).

GP experience
I was on
rigevidon
for nearly 6 years and didnt like the side effects as they gave me bad mood swings, but instead of suggesting other pills that may be suitable or any testing I was told to come back when I want to gey pregnant. Any advice would be helpful:)

Periods after surgery
I’m 41 and pill that has been recommended is Levest or
Rigevidon
. I don’t know whether to give my body more time or take the pill. Has anyone else experienced anything similar or got any advice? Thank you.

Advice needed on breakthrough bleeding and hip pain whilst on pill
I’ve been on the pill (
rigevidon
) for 6 years now and I often take pill packs back to back to better control my periods. I’ve taken a few back to back recently (maybe around 4-5 packs) and I’m half way through my current pack and haven’t missed any pills.

potential endo, no confirmed diagnosis.
I have always been on the pill (
rigevidon
) and this kept my periods at bay (for most of the time) but the swelling and bowl issues have most definitely always been present. Nausea also every single day with the feeling of being extremely bloated.

Been in constant agony since excision surgery in January, at my wits end please please help
In august I got hold of the hospital at my wits end and managed to get through to him, he put me on a different pill (
Rigevidon
) which actually helped and the bleeding thankfully stopped for around 3 months. Had an ultrasound to check mirena placement and all was fine.

Endo - struggling with hormonal contraception as a treatment
My GP put me on
Rigevidon
. I had told her that I had the coil removed after 18 months due to mental health issues including suicidal thoughts. I now realise that one of the active ingredients in
Rigevidon
is levonorgestrel, the same as the Mirena coil.

What happens if I stop my birth control for a month?
I have been taking the combined pill (
rigevidon
) for almost 2 years and forgot to take it with me on holiday. Is it ok for me to stop taking it and start again when I am home in a month? Is this dangerous in any way? Thanks

Switching from Microgynon to Rigevidon.
Hi, my doctor has recently switched my combined pill to another brand. They are both combined pills and have the same hormones in them. However I just finished my 4 day break (I am taking pills back to back for 9 weeks then I take a 4 day break). The pharmacist told me I would be protect straight away

I'm new here
I came off the pill and went onto to non-hormonal / copper coil. 3 months later, once the pill (
Rigevidon
) was out of my system, I began getting sharp and dull pains in my ovaries for around a week at a time. I was told it was painful ovulation and provided anti-biotics, which did nothing.

Being dismissed because I’m on contraceptive pill
My symptoms continued, and I was put on
Rigevidon
in January 2019, which has helped. Last year, I had an abnormal smear result and attended a colposcopy clinic in January 2021.

Has anyone with endometriosis had luck with rigevidon?
My periods have been so awful this is the last thing the GP can prescribe me before another referral to gynae which the GP thinks is pointless as I've already had surgery? Can anyone else suggest anything for pain management? I have done Pilates, changed my diet tried the homeopathic route and nothing
