"i took this for about 5 months and didn&#039;t hate it until the last month or two, but by then i really, really hated it. my shin was pretty clear and my breasts grew two cup sizes, which was nice. however, they hurt constantly and were always sore. i always felt bloated and gained 5 pounds the first week, and another 8 pounds over the next couple months, the weight was impossible to lose, and as someone who has struggled with eating disorders it was extremely disheartening. the worst part, however, was a complete and total loss of interest in sex. it was really damaging my relationship, to which sex has been a really huge part. the sex drive wasn&#039;t hugely affected until the end of my use of trinessa but it was a very intense drop off."
