"i have been taking this medication for about a week now and my main purpose for it was to regulate and lighten my periods as well as help with acne.  after 4 days of taking it, i kept waking up with really bad cramps and brown spotting which is really annoying.  i feel bloated all the time and i experience really bad gas pain.  i also have really bad headaches and felt nauseous everyday so far.  i really hope all this stuff starts to subside and starts working."
