"i was on this medication for 2 weeks and started noticing abnormal bruising and mid-cycle spotting.  i looked on the paperwork that came from the pharmacy and it listed those symptoms under the &quot;contact your doctor immediately&quot; category.  i spoke to him and he said to stop taking it immediately.  it can mess with your blood cell production in your bone marrow.  not taking this anymore.  i am one of the unlucky ones that gets side effects so i will stick with something safer for me.   it&#039;s not worth it in my case."
