Birth Control
"I&#039;ve tried ortho-cyclen and microgestin 1/20 and diane 35 before. OC made me gain weight like crazy and I couldn&#039;t deal with the bloating; I also lost a ton of muscle mass. I&#039;ve been on OTC -lo for about a week but I feel such a big difference in the degree of my side effects. I&#039;m asian, 5&#039;2&quot; and 118lbs for reference. I don&#039;t feel nauseous at all, very minimal bloating, my skin&#039;s a bit clearer, and my sex drive&#039;s the same! I&#039;m nervous about the tri-phasic style of the pill as I&#039;m very sensitive to hormone shifts, so I may update my review after a months. I think people just really need to find a pill that most closely mimics their natural hormone levels and go up or down in estrogen and progestin as they observe the changes in their body."
