"i had a tough time with my periods since day 1. always excruciatingly painful, bloating, vomiting, heavy and lengthy 9+days. i had to miss a lot of school and later on had to miss a lot of work. quality of life was very poor. i always had to plan my life around when my period would be coming because i knew all plans would have to be cancelled. natazia changed all of that. i have been taking it for 5 years now and these days my periods are super light for 2 days with no pain. cons.... since i&#039;ve been on this pill ive noticed my vision has gotten progressively worse, i am moody, i have gained about 10 lbs per year that no amount of diet and exercise seems to be able to fix and finally i have nosex drive, putting a strain on my relationship"
