"ive been on microgestin fe 1/20 for a little over a year now. the first few weeks of taking it i had horrible nausea but after that it worked great. i do notice that i become more emotional over things sometimes (angry without reason, sad because of nothing). my periods are very light and last for about 4-5 days, although this is the first month where my period has come for just one day. i didn&#039;t have acne or cramps before and i still don&#039;t get them. my breast also increased a size. i particularly enjoy this birth control."
