"i have been on this pill for over a year now and hate it. i used to be on an estrogen one but my dr said my blood pressure was a bit too high so she switched me (every other time i get my blood pressure checked it&#039;s completely normal). i have heavy periods which in my job where i can&#039;t just get up and go to the bathroom when i need sucks. i didn&#039;t have my period at all during the summer but then it came back with a vengeance. i have had it roughly every two weeks for the past 5 months. i also never know when it&#039;s going to start so i am wearing a pad more often than not now. i am going to be telling my dr to take me off this pill when i next go in."
