Ive been on Alesse for 12 years and Love it. I've had no side effects, no problems and no pregnancies on it. (I went off it for a few months and got preggers then).

Its a low dose one. It was too weak for me and I had alot of break through bleeding if i missed one pill or was late with it. so i switched from it to tricyclin (sp) then from it to Diane 35 to clear acne. then off all them because the pill is pretty bad for you, i got cysts (sp) and endemetriosis.

I know the pill isn't great. Personally, I'd rather not have to worry about it at all. But FH is being a big chicken and refusing to see Dr. Snip

I've had no problems with it, but I did have issues with the generic version of it

I've had no problems with it, but I did have issues with the generic version of itI've heard other people say that, too. I asked my dr and she said that Alesse really wants your business, so she can give me a coupon to take to the pharmacy, and the company will cover the cost difference between the generic version (which is all my drug plan will cover) and the real one. I'm not sure how it works, since I have 3 sample packs, but I can post it when I find out

Sounds like me (although now it is for birth control) I switched from Dianne 35 to Alesse and was happy, I started getting sore boobs and would spot if a pill was missed or even late (but after a few years of taking it) so my doctor switched me to Yasmin. If your doc recommended it, I wouldn't be too concerned, just ask him/her any questions, mine was great about helping me find something that worked for me- plus he has two daughters my age so he knows a lot from their experiences. I know Alesse is a pretty low dossage, so some people do get pregnant from it, but you and your doc should be able to come up with a good birth control plan together.
