"feb. to sept. i was on the mini pill just progesterone and during that time i got acne that never went away and i gained 25 pounds with bad mood swings. prior to that i was on yasmine for a year which caused my hair to thin out but my doctor was concerned it was giving me really bad headaches. i started ortho tri cyclean lo 32 days ago and everyday i&#039;ve had a period which today it seems to be going away. i know it takes up to 90 days for my body to adjust so i&#039;m willing to work through it. the acne has gone away completely, no headaches, no severe mood swings and my hair has stopped falling out. i don&#039;t have the food cravings so hopefully i can start to lose the weight. i have noticed my breasts have grown which is fine by me."
