I have been taking Elleste for a month and have just come to the end of four days of extreme menstrual pain, even though I haven't had a period for five years. The week before this I was very snappy and am now my moods are swinging quite low. I've decided not to take any more as I couldn't cope with this ever month and its far worse than why I'm taking them. I was on climesse for a few years but had to stop for a major operation and my doc says they're not available any more. I got on okay with those and no period pains. X
