"i switched to this birth control from yaz because my periods (although controlled) were still 7-8 days long and heavy. when i switched to this pill i gained about 8 lbs, was intensely moody, and noticed my hair and skin became extremely oily. i was on it for 4 months and it only got worse. i had breakthrough bleeding the entire time. the second month i was on it i bled for 2 weeks straight. it was absolutely miserable. i know birth control affects every person differently, but this was awful for me."
