"I had been on other birth controls before switching to this one. Every other birth control made me very moody and just out of it all the time. I&#039;ve now been on sprinted for almost 3 years and have not had a single problem with it. In fact my periods are lighter, my mood is elevated and my skin has even improved. I would not rule out sprintec because of the negative reviews. Everyone is different, as are their hormones. I would recommend Sprintec over any other birth control. However if you do have problems with it, than switch birth controls until you find one that works for you. As I said before I had been on 4 different birth controls with extremely negative side effects, however I have not had a single issue since switching to Sprintec."
