"i went on this for my intense period cramps. when i first started it, i immediately started spotting-which is a common side effect. however the flow was heavy, i had severe cramps that made me feel nauseous and i was super moody. i was easily irritated which got me into a few heated arguments. however, i barely felt any cramps and flow was light. no sign of weight gain nor acne changes either. the next few months, it felt like i wasn&rsquo;t even on the pill, since my period cramps returned, my face broke out with more pimples, my appetite grew, and i was bloated all the time. the spotting with cramps returned and when i contacted my doctor, she gave me the option to try it for one more month. but i had enough and i switched brands."
