"i have been taking junel 1.5 for about a year and a half. i didn&#039;t gain weight, have mood swings, breakthrough bleeding, low sex drive, but i did notice around my period time i would have 1 or 2 cyst like pimples pop up that took roughly 2 weeks to heal and sometimes left a scar which i&#039;m not prone to acne and have a good skin regime. so i am switching to sronyx (generic of aviane) due to that. otherwise this was good birth control for me. didn&#039;t get pregnant  and had regular periods usually 4 days long and light."
