"i have been on this birth control for 11 months now. at first i experienced moodiness and being over-emotional, and i still do sometimes whenever i start my new pack. however, my periods are so much lighter and only last from wednesday to sunday. coming from somewhere who has had nightmare periods (such heavy bleeding that i would miss school) this is a great plus. my skin has also cleared up tremendously. i had my face under control but i would always get back acne, and i don&#039;t break out on my back anymore. i have also gone up two cup sizes and i&#039;m definitely not complaining. also, it does its job on preventing pregnancy!"
