"i wouldn&#039;t even rate this oral contraceptive as high as 1 out of 10. i was prescribed this by my doctor for birth control as well as issues with p.m.s.. this medication is horrible. upon starting it my depression was off the charts, i was so irritable that people closest to me asked, &quot;why am i so miserable?&quot;, i had acne breakouts, which i have not had since the age of 15, so 12 years later &amp; not sexy out breaks. my sex drive went to zero. insomnia constantly.. when i did get my period jeezus, heavy flow, fatigue, fever like feeling/hard time getting out of bed and functioning, and cramps worse than without being on this med. the pms is horrible. this website won&#039;t let me write more. hair loss as well. 4 periods a month is not worth this med"
