"i was on this birth control for 8-9 years! my period would come like clock work, every tuesday of the 4th week around 9-10am. really no side effects. unfortunately, my body got used to this pill causing me to start to spot in between periods and my spotting/period would last for days. i have been looking for a birth control for the last year that has had the same positive effect on my body as necon did for so long."
