"had not taken birth control for about 2 years and decided to get back on it. started out with apri and i would not recommend to my worst enemy. i normally have very clear skin but it made my face break out like a crazy and made me gain 10+ lbs. i am very athletic and eat healthy so i don&#039;t believe it could be contributed to my diet. the weight is also seeming impossible to get off when still on the birth control. it also made my breasts constantly tender. i do not recommend this."
