Birth Control
"I&#039;ve been on this medication for approximately 5 years, if not longer. My skin rarely broke out, I never got pregnant or even a pregancy scare, &amp; didn&#039;t notice any weight gain either.  However, I frequently spotted between periods. It wasn&#039;t specific to pre-mensturation or post-menstruation (which can indicate what horomone you could be lacking or needing a change in). The spotting put a huge damper on my sex drive/life (not enjoyable at all). I also noticed that  occassionally if I didn&#039;t take the pill right at my usual time everyday I would get irritated a little easier, cry easier, be grumpy &amp; even be sick to my stomach.  I also got cramps before my period &amp; salty/sweet cravings. Overall it was easy &amp; worked."
