"i was scared to take birth control pills because i recently had a tough fight with depression, and i didn&#039;t want to go through mood swings during the adjustment period for these pills. however, also noticed that when i was depressed, i was at my worst the days before my period. i&#039;ve been taking these for two weeks, and i&#039;ve noticed no side effects at all. i actually have been feeling better than ever! of course, this is my body and everyone else&#039;s can react differently. you don&quot;t know how you&#039;ll react till you try it."
