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.

Despite some of the negative side effects. It’s definitely better than the other pills I’ve tried so far. It’s been 100% effective. And after a few years of use, the initial weight gain does stop.

I've been on this pill for 6 years, effects my moods less than other pills I've tried I.e. no depression on it but the loss of sex drive is a bit stressful. Also cystic acne... oh the nausea and headaches suck but I also get this peeling skin thing, just on my hands just during pms and then it disappears then comes back at the next cycle..
