Not bad but increased anxiety being on the pill, acne was better and cramps and more regular periods you’d know when they are coming which was good but being on it for awhile increased my anxiety.

I wanted a pill that I'd still have my period on and that was good, but I wasn't thrilled about not having a sex drive.
