"i had this put in at my post partum check up back in january and i so far love it. i have put on weight, but that&#039;s because i boredom eat. i&#039;ve always had bad adult acne, so i haven&#039;t noticed that side effect. my period is wonky, pretty much all of february i had it, and part of march. have it a few days, gone a few days, etc. i haven&#039;t had my period since march though. this has been my favorite birth control."
