I had horrendous mood swings on this pill, I would cry all the time and get angry very easily. I had awful period pain, and my periods were extremely heavy and lasted much longer than normal. I felt sick quite often.

The only rhing that stopped me from taking this pill was the fact that I was starting to develop symptoms of depression. Not ideal! But if it works for you, go for it!
