Effectiveness

How Gildess 1.5/30 Affects PatientsEthinylestradiol is a hormone-based drug that stops the body from releasing certain hormones that cause ovulation and thickening of the uterus lining. It lasts a long time and is taken once daily, and it is generally considered safe with few serious side effects. However, patients should be aware of the risk of blood clots.
How Gildess 1.5/30 works in the bodyEthinylestradiol is a synthetic hormone that acts like estrogen. It affects the body in many ways, including reducing bone density. When taken as a contraceptive, it prevents pregnancy by stopping ovulation, making it difficult for sperm to travel to the egg, and preventing changes in the endometrium that are necessary for a fertilized egg to attach. Ethinylestradiol also lowers luteinizing hormone levels, which reduces the blood supply to the endometrium, and increases the amount of sex hormone binding globulin.

Gildess 1.5/30 Reviews: What are patients saying about Gildess 1.5/30?

4Patient Review
10/12/2016
Gildess 1.5/30 for Painful Periods
I was switched to Gildess after Junel was discontinued. I found myself to be very emotional, spacey, and anxious on this new medication. I cried a lot and got frustrated easily. My period was normal and on time, which was good. But I didn't like the other side effects, so I'm hoping to try something else soon.

Gildess 1.5/30 for Birth Control
The side effects on this medication are really severe. I've never experienced anything like this with any other birth control, so I'm going back to my old one.

Gildess 1.5/30 for Birth Control
Do not take this medication. You will have your period twice a month, and experience bad side effects. I thought maybe it would regulate after 2 months, and the side effects did not stop. This has been a frustrating experience, avoid this medication.

In my experience, this treatment made me break out more, caused weight gain, and increased my levels of depression and anxiety. Overall, a terrible experience.

Gildess 1.5/30 for Birth Control
I started taking this drug and after only two weeks, I began experiencing serious negative side effects like crying spells, depression, and panic attacks. I had to stop taking the medication and my doctor put me on a different one. In my opinion, Gildess is not worth the risk.
