Birth Control
"I started taking this medicine for its obvious indication as birth control, but also wanted to get on it for it&#039;s anti-androgenic properties.
I&#039;ve noticed crazy mood swings; I&#039;ve had several anxiety attacks, and depression that has become out of control. I haven&#039;t really noticed a decrease in acne (although I never suffered from it to begin with, I still have the occasional couple zits on my chin). However, I have noticed a decrease in speed of growth of unwanted facial hair.
Decreased sex drive, nausea, and weight loss are also a side effect I have experienced. I am just now getting over the nausea. Also--I had breakthrough bleeding for about 2 1/2 weeks. I&#039;m going to try it a couple more months to see if I regulate the hormones better."
