"this medication definitely reacts differently for everyone. this is my ninth birth control i&#039;ve been on in my life. i used to get cystic acne terribly on my face and every birth control has had a different side effect for me. this one has been pretty bad. i no longer have terrible cystic acne on my face, but now it has appeared all over my back. also, if you are taking depression medication, i really don&#039;t recommend. this has absolutely made me more depressed and i&#039;ve also gained a lot of weight after almost 3 months of it. i think the pill makes me need to emotional eat."
