"the pros for this pill are that it did lighten my period which is what i was looking for since i have fibroids which make my cycles heavier than normal. also, i didn&#039;t get migraines with these pills like i did with some other birth control pills. now to the cons.  within a few months of taking this pill i have picked up 14 pounds!!!! my moods are horrible and my sex drive is low. i tend to feel down a lot more than usual as well. i was also very very tired all the time. no matter how much sleep i got or how well i ate, my energy was just gone. i decided to switch after the last pack of pills. they just didn&#039;t agree with my body."
