"I&#039;ve been on the pill for about 7 months and it&#039;s been okay. I have had weight gain but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s from the pill, more like a lack of exercise since I just started college. I don&#039;t exercise as I used to. I&#039;m using it to keep my period regular, which it is doing. I don&#039;t think I&#039;ve had any spotting really. However it hasn&#039;t lightened up my period that much and it gives me migraines which I never got before. Also I have more cramps then I did before. "
