"i started taking the bc 2 weeks ago and i was very scared to start the pill. i started taking it because i was having the most irregular and painful periods ever but this pill in no way has helped. my breast are so sore i have to take medication, my face is breaking out so badly one of my relatives said the pill was &quot;destroying my complection&quot; and worse of all i&#039;m experiencing cramps that are worse than i had before. horrible headaches are keeping me from going to gymnastics practices and it&#039;s cause my anxiety to get worse (i already had pretty bad anxiety). so, acne, headaches, cramps, painful breast....wasn&#039;t this supposed to help me."
