"this was the first birth control pill i went on because i was having heavy periods and cramps but also because i started having sex. never really had too many problems, still had pretty heavy days for the first 2 out of 6 but at least they would come like clockwork. i did get super emotional for about 3 days a month where almost anything would make me cry and where i would get the occasional extreme cramp. overall it worked pretty well for me, never got pregnant even though had a ton of sex near the end (usually also had condoms) and managed to rarely miss a pill.
