"i have tried about 5 different birth controls before my new doctor put me on minastrin. i have pcos, doctors have recommended i always stay on birth control to help it. before this pill i bled heavily for a month straight, 2 days after starting this the bleeding stopped. i now have a very light period for maybe 3 days. medications can affect one person different from the next person, but this pill has been one of the best. the bonus is my insurance pays 100% for birth control."
