"i&#039;ve tried all types of birth control and this one is by far the best. i had spontaneous zits on my face but no severe acne however with this birth control i rarely have anything on my face.  (keep in mind it took me about 3- 4 months for it to completely clear up my skin) which is normal.  no weight gain. very short periods. only negatives it&#039;s that i cry like a baby over any emotional movie.  like i can&#039;t even control it,  it&#039;s crazy.  but i&#039;ll take that over a pimple face any day.  i also like this specific birth control because my previous one used to make me bruise very easily,  but i see improvement with this type."
