Birth Control
"I got put on this bcp after I had surgery to remove ovarian cysts on both ovaries.  Bcp is supposed to stop cysts from coming back.  I didn&#039;t notice any weight gain while I was on this pill, however I worked out 3-4 times a week to avoid possible weight gain.  I have back acne and occasional pimples on my face I didn&#039;t notice it did anything to make it better or worsen it. I have some hair growth on my chin :&#039;( which this didn&#039;t do anything to help or worsen my condition.  Did not notice many side effects overall while on the pill.  Once I stopped taking it I noticed heavier periods, cramps (didn&#039;t have them before bcp), pain on my ovaries and headaches. Wasn&#039;t able to go back to see if it helped my cysts because I lost insurance coverage."
