"i&#039;ve been on this pill for almost two years (23 months). it was originally prescribed to me to clear up my acne and i love it! i have shorter periods and so far it&#039;s been good with pregnancy prevention. my only problem is that i&#039;ve missed two periods (one april 2016 and one november 2016) and i have had some scares but hey, not pregnant! never had any weird side effects."
