What users say
I’ve been on the cerelle for 7 months now after having migraines with a combined pill. The first 6 weeks were a bleed free & headache free dream, then following 6 weeks were the opposite. 7 months in and i have got very used to not having periods - however I think its making my skin more spotty and greasy...
After taking the combined pill for so long, I find the packets of Cerelle a bit annoying to follow. Saying that having no periods is amazing!!
