"i have been on orsythia for a year now and i have to say that i have never been happier with another birth control and i&#039;ve one other before starting orsythia. i did not gain any weight, lose my sex drive, get acne, have mood swings, pms symptoms or most importantly get pregnant on this birth control. i am so happy with my rx and i would highly recommend. i understand that everyone is different and experience drugs differently but you need to wait the 3-4 months before getting used to a daily drug in your body that changes your natural hormones. i love it and i see that it is very effective for me."
