"i&#039;m in the middle of my third month using trinessa.  i&#039;m 17 and it&#039;s the first form of birth controll pills i&#039;ve tried.  overall these first few months have been a positive experience. i had minor acne which is all gone and i never break out.  my periods are much lighter.  i only have to use a &quot;regular&quot; size tampon for 4 days but then i will usually spot for 3-4 more days, in which i&#039;ll just use a panty liner.  my first week and month on trinessa was pretty difficult, it messed with my vision and definitely my mood.  i became very depressed and even suicidal at times but things have gotten better since then.  i have not gained or lost any weight on the pill and still have the same appetite.  also, it has been a great contraceptive.  :)"
