"i had stopped taking birth control all together for about a month and lost a ton of weight and my breasts got smaller and then  my doctor put me on apri. easily one of the worst things to happen to me. i&#039;ve never had such bad acne in my life and it seems like it never stops. i&#039;ve also gained at least 10 pounds in addition to my normal weight and that&#039;s being modest. i feel bloated all the time and i can&#039;t tell if i look fat because i&#039;m bloated or because it&#039;s the weight being distributed right into my stomach. i&#039;m switching back to my old birth control. apri sucks."
