"i&#039;ve been on it for about 1 1/2 years now and at first it worked great at keeping me on a schedule. however at this point, if i forget to take it just for one day within a month of the day i&#039;m supposed to start the placebo, then i&#039;m going to start on the missed day instead. it seems like it&#039;s losing it&#039;s strength on me because i&#039;m getting more acne around &quot;that&quot; time. the hormone fluctuations are still pretty obvious to my body because i still get migraines. no change in cramps, but as long as they&#039;re not worse, i&#039;m okay with it. with those negatives out of the way, i can say that i haven&#039;t gained any weight and as long as i don&#039;t forget, it does a pretty good job of keeping me on the 90 day schedule."
