"i have been on this birth control for over 3 years now, and it has been amazing for me. i tried sprintec and had crazy mood swings and depression. after switching to this my life has completely changed. i have very regular periods (i know that i will start in the morning on tuesday of my period week), and my periods have gotten much lighter and shorter. i used to bleed heavily for 7-9 days, so this birth control has worked wonders. i don&#039;t think it has made me gain weight, but it is hard to tell as i graduated college and took a desk job a few years ago which influences weight as well. all in all i have only gained around 10 lbs whether it be due to the birth control or taking the desk job. i would highly recommend."
