"i have been taking this pill for 9 days. so far i haven&#039;t noticed anything too extreme, which is good. i have noticed that i&#039;m feeling bloated more than anything. i have gained a few pounds earlier in my cycle than i usually do, but i&#039;m not above my normal range before i started taking the pill. i&#039;m hoping that i don&#039;t continue to gain any weight. i track my diet, so if i gain more weight than the usual monthly water weight, i&#039;ll be very surprised. i&#039;ve noticed moodiness a bit, but nothing i can&#039;t control. i get more upset and irritated with smaller things than usual, but i hear that goes away eventually. my skin hasn&#039;t broken out at all, really. my breasts feel a tad bit tender and swollen, but nothing painful as of yet."
