"I was on this pill for a year and am now going off because my doctor suggested a switch. The pill caused slight irrational emotions, but were fairly manageable (I would find myself starting to tear up over insignificant things fairly frequently) The pill did not effect sex drive, yet the periods were irritating. There was no cramping and they were light, which is a plus. The negative aspect was even though the periods were light they would last a while (7-10 days) and it seemed once every three months I would get 2 periods in one month. The periods would hardly ever come when the packet predicted, yet the pills did their job. I experienced no weight gain, no improvement or worsening of acne break outs, and obviously no pregnancy."
