"this is an awful birth control. i was switched to it because my last birth control was very low dose and mainly for my acne, not pregnancy prevention. i am a gym junkie and eat super healthy but still gained so much weight on my hips and stomach. i was so exhausted i would fall asleep driving, and take daily naps - i have never been like that and have always had lots of energy. my face exploded with acne which hasn&#039;t happened to me in years. not to mention i spotted every week before my period. sometimes two weeks before. overall this has done me no good. do not recommend at all."
