"so i&#039;m barely on my first pack of this but i&#039;m a little worried. i&#039;ve been on probably 5 different birth controls. sprintec, ortho tri cyclen lo, lomedia 24 l, amethyst, etc etc. with those i would eventually have breakthrough bleeding that wouldn&#039;t stop so i kept switching. ortho tri cyclen lo was awful i broke our so bad. so my doctor suggest a higher hormone dosage since i kept having breakthrough bleeding. since i&#039;ve started this, my stomach hurts a lot kinda like cramps, i have headaches, my breasts have gotten a lot bigger and they hurt to barely be touched, i also see to have gained weight obviously with my breast being bigger. i&#039;m scared kinda but i read to give it a few months and hopefully it goes away. no bleeding though"
