"I was on it for 6 months. I listened to everyone, doctor included giving it the fair trial to allow it to adjust in my system. However, the end result was worse then how it started. Within the 1st week on the pill my mood swings were absurd and my sex drive gone. I started my period  only for it to last 12 days and continued having 2 periods a month and constant brown discharge. I have been off this pill for 2 months still waiting for all of the side effects to taper off.  My skin stayed the same, acne was never a problem. My chest stayed the same. I didn&#039;t gain any weight but I had far too many emotional &quot;fat&quot; days!"
