"i just finished my first pack and haven&#039;t had many side effects. i was very worried about nausea but if you take it with food you won&#039;t have any problems. i have experienced breast tenderness, bloating, water retention (this is where the weight gain comes from), and a little bit of lack of sex drive. i do like it because it has cleared up some of my acne and i believe that i just got my &quot;period&quot; this week which was very light spotting. my insurance covers it also so it&#039;s free for me. i&#039;m pretty happy with it so far and i&#039;m glad its reacting fairly well with my body. good luck!"
