"i recently got married so my husband and i started discussing different birth control methods and decided on the pill. i have suffered from acne since i was 13 and when i found ortho tri-cyclen, approved to treat acne, i thought it would be a good pill for me to try. my experience on ortho so far has been positive. i have been on the pill for three months (my third pack) and have had no negative side effects. i have been happier, haven&#039;t gained any noticeable weight, no mood swings, way lighter/shorter periods, no pregnancy, and larger breast. i&#039;m a bit disappointed because my acne has only slightly improved but hasn&#039;t worsened. maybe if i remain on the pill longer my acne will completely disappear. overall i&#039;m happy and will remain on ortho tri cyclen."
