"this is the first and only birth control medication i&#039;ve been on. i&#039;ve been taking it a little over 2 years now. i&#039;ve had no side-effects besides extremely low sex drive. i&#039;ve never had a particularly high sex drive but now it&#039;s nonexistent. i haven&#039;t had any of the headaches or mood swings. there was a mild increase in my acne but i&#039;m also a college student so i don&#039;t particularly lay all the blame on the pill. overall, it does it&#039;s job but i would caution potential takers with low libido."
