"i was put on this bc because my periods were incredibly long, 25 days. i didn&#039;t gain weight, but i noticed on it i felt hungry all the time and had cravings for fatty foods. but i have charlie horses no matter how many banana&#039;s i eat or water i drink (and i eat a banana every day and drink about 100oz of water a day). the mood swings are terrible. i never want to do anything, i have no motivation, getting out of bed is a challenge, the bouts of crying. i&#039;m irritable all the time. i&#039;m frustrated about everything.  i go to the doctor next week and asking to be switched to something else. also my periods are horrible still after 3 months ultra tampons every hour and horrible pains in abdomen."
