"i&#039;ve been on this pill for around 11 months, and for the most part i find it good. i started off using it just to regulate my period, not knowing that it would just go away after the first few months. i&#039;m sexually active and i find that it does decrease my sex drive. it was very frightening when i stopped having my period, and i did gain weight, but i take pregnancy tests periodically (just as a precaution). i still have period symptoms at the end of the pack, but i haven&#039;t had one in 7 months. the worst thing i find about this pack is that it makes me more emotional and increases my headaches."
