Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.

Althea pills presents with side effects like nausea, vomiting, skin or hair changes, headache, water retention, change in weight & libido, breast tenderness etc.

Also Menstrual disturbances such as spotting, breakthrough bleeding or ammenorrhea can occur.

However, you are going to use it for the first time, so give a try.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.

Regards,
