"i was afraid to try this because of all of the negative reviews. it&#039;s best to just try things out yourself. everyone is different. i have only been on birth control once before. i was on skyla iud previously for a little less then two months. my body couldn&#039;t handle it at all. so i decided to get off it and try the pill. i waited until my period started &amp; now i am on my third week. at first i did have mood swings (pretty bad), i was emotional, with nausea but not too bad. i am still bleeding a little but it&#039;s going away. i called my gyno to make sure it was normal &amp; apparently it is. it takes some time for your body to get use to it. now that i&#039;m on the third week, i am starting to feel normal again. even kinda happy. best of luck."
