"this is my fourth month on this medication and my 7th period. i was originally asking about birth control methods that would keep me from having my period every month and was told by my doctor that i could continue onto a second pack, skipping the week of fake pills and that should prevent my period. after that didn&#039;t work the first time i decided to just take it normally, but that&#039;s when my period started happening every other week. i have been abnormally emotional, but until i read the other reviews on this site i never thought to blame this medication. i&#039;m normally a very subdued person who deals with my problems internally, these last few months i&#039;ve been incredibly emotional and sensitive, crying a lot. i have had some extra acne too."
