"i had a great experience on this medicine. i recently stopped because i got sick of the spotting. what makes me mad is as soon as i stopped, my body had finally got used to it. i was a pretty fit person too. i am 5&#039;6 and i weight about 145 when starting, and then dropped down to 130. it&#039;s very, very rare to lose weight so don&#039;t think it will happen to you but i went to the gym in my spare time ( i mainly ran a lot) and i lost the weight. it was great and i never had to worry about being pregnant. i plan to go back on this bc again. plus, it was free. i have tried plenty of bc and can&#039;t stand the pills, tried the nuvaring because that was free with my insurance too. nope hated it. everyone is different but overall this was the best bc i was on."
