"i know there are many with bad experiences, but everyone&#039;s body is different. this is the first time i have ever taken birth control &quot;pill form&quot; and i have had no issues. my weight has stayed about the same, i have my period for a few days and it is light, and i have no breakouts. the only thing i get is my breasts get tender, but other than that, i have had a wonderful experience with this pill."
