"i started this pill about a year ago. i was on a couple other birth control pills before. this pill made me gain a bunch of weight, frequent breast pain, and horrible cramps. my emotions are always out of control. i eat healthy and workout at least three days a week and shouldn&#039;t be gaining all of this weight. the bloating when on my period has gotten dramatically worse. i would recommend not taking this pill. i am in the process of getting a different pill."
