Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"I&#039;ve been taking cryselle since I was 15, I am now 21. I needed a medication to lighten my periods because I have severe anemia. Overall, I was satisfied with this birth control. I did have side effects like weight gain. I gained nearly 50 lbs over the last 7 years which isn&#039;t normal since I have a strict diet and work out every single day. My periods were still heavy at first. But during the last year and a half, my periods last 2 days and are very light like spotting. I am sexually actively, so I was worried that I may have been pregnant, but tests say otherwise. I had random acne before my periods on my chin and cheeks. I craved salty foods around the time of my period so that could be the culprit of my acne. Cramps weren&#039;t awful. There would be cramps that stopped my in my tracks but they lasted a few seconds and I was fine. It&#039;s just the normal period symptoms that are normal to have!  I am currently switching to lo loestrine and have read more bad reviews than good ones. So I&#039;m not sure that I want to go ahead and start the pack after my last dose of cryselle or not."
