"was on this for about 3 months, normally the time frame for deciding whether or not your body reacts well to a medication. periods were fine and normal, lasted about 5 days, light to moderate. still got cramps around the second day and acne about a week or so prior to my period. i started to get inter-menstrual cramping and sharp pain in between periods. normally if i miss a pill, or few, i can take them all, up to 4, shit happens, and be fine. with this i felt really sick and crampy if i took more than 2. i gained about 15lbs in 3 months, but i also had moved across country and started a new desk job, so cant account that all to the medication. no mood swings or headaches. definitely increased discharge though."
