"i was on this pill for a little more than one year before i switched to an iud (mirena)



pros:

-regular, short, predictable periods with little to no pms

-clear skin

-went up a cup size (b to c)



cons:

-increased vaginal discharge and odor

-weight gain (20lbs) with little to no change in diet/exercise 

-moodiness/days of low energy 



i might have stayed on this pill because of the regular periods and clear acne, but the weight gain made me self conscious and a break from daily pills (with iud) was appealing."
