Birth Control
"I just started taking Tri Sprintec after my last period, and I&#039;m now on the week of placebo pills.  I was really worried that I was going to have all the terrible side effects everyone mentions.  So far I had have had no negative side effects, aside from some spotting during the 3rd week of pills that got heavier the closer I got to the placebo pills week.  I&#039;ve had no weight gain, no nausea, no mood swings, and the best part is I don&#039;t have near the cramps I used to. My acne is a little bit better, but I read that it may take a few months for it to help my skin. I also read that the breakthrough bleeding is normal when you first start taking any form of birth control, so I&#039;m going to continue taking it and hope that it decreases with time."
