"i have nothing bad to say about this pill. i had the mirena for almost a year and it was the worst bc ever. i had bad acne, weight gain, not able to lose weight and stomach pain. i am very active (even had a trainer and ate healthy)  and once i got the mirena i was not able to lose a pound and felt bloated all the time. it also made my migraines way worse. about a month after i got it out i lost 10lbs. then after a couple months i got nexplanon. i have pcos so bc helps with my bleeding and cramps. i only had that in for a month and it caused weight gain 4lbs, water retention, migraines and acne on my neck. i have been on minastrin 24 fe for a month and it is a savior. no acne, no weight gain and has helped my migraines. i highly recommend."
