"in the beginning this contraceptive made me nauseated every single day, which was irritating.  i did spot more than normal in the first month or two, however i am now 18 months in and like it very much.  i don&#039;t have nearly as many crazy mood swings on this pill as i have on others and it seems to be a very effective contraceptive (even if i forget to take it and have to play catch-up every once in a while).  however, since i&#039;ve been on it i have experienced yeast infections and urinary tract infections much more often than usual but i&#039;m unsure if that is the pill or change in sexual habits.  all in all, not pregnant, so thumbs up."
