Birth Control
"I&#039;ve tried many different birth controls for about 3 yrs prior to taking Apri. I took Apri for my acne &amp; birth control for 2 yrs &amp; it worked great. I decided to stop taking birth control altogether about 1.5 yrs ago. My acne came back immediately but my periods were lighter and I didn&#039;t have cramps while I was off of it. My dermatologists prescribed me Accutane for my acne but I decided to try birth control again. I&#039;ve been taking Apri for 4 months &amp; my skin is basically completely clear. Maybe 1 or 2 when it&#039;s TOM. However I&#039;ve noticed recent weight gain (10 lbs in 2 wks) &amp; increase in my appetite &amp; cravings. My breasts are sore &amp; noticeably bigger. I&#039;m worried this is side effects from Apri. But 10lbs is better than acne!"
