"i only give this a two because technically it is &#039;effective&#039; because i haven&#039;t gotten pregnant. however, i absolutely hate it!!! i have had it about 6 months and i&#039;ve had my period/spotting almost the entire time. it really interferes with my sex life. i got it because my friend has it and likes it but i would not recommend this to anyone. i&#039;m getting it taken out asap."
