"i used to be on levlen, had no problems at all. i changed to depo which is an injection contraceptive, so i didn&#039;t have to remember to take a pill. on depo i gained a lot of weight and was unable to control my emotions. i intend on returning to levlen now. the only drawback is remembering to take the pill. make sure you find a contraceptive that suits your body. levlen seemed to be fine for me, but it may be different for you and others."
