"pros: effective, worry free birth control that i didn&#039;t have to think about from month to month. having non-hormonal birth control is very important to me. 

cons: everyone&#039;s body is different, some people love this birth control. my experience, for the entire year i had it was miserable. horrible, consistent cramps for the first three months. i had to call out of work a few times because i could barely stand. once that subsided, my monthly cramps were miserable. my cycle(which was never too much trouble in the past) was a week of crazy hormones, followed by a week of bleeding and cramps that would keep me up at night, and then a week of cramps post bleeding. i literally had a week of feeling normal.
also, extreme fatigue. i was miserable."
