"starting taking this bc after norethindrone was making me feel &quot;empty&quot; inside and i honestly did not like it. i&#039;m a healthy 28 year old who doesn&#039;t smoke or drink and it caused me to constantly feel nauseous that&#039;s the main reason i decided to switch to something else and even when i would take it at 10pm i was still nauseous all day, i started breaking out a lot but my skin would clear up completely once i would take the inactive pills, i was also extremely hungry all the time and once i would start the inactive pills i would have my usual apetite back again. pros: my period was lighter. i gave the birth control 3 months just to see if the side effects would go away but they did not..had my doctor switch me to a lower dose bc."
