"i have been on this for 6 months. the first 3 months i was bleeding heavily and had very painful cramps (also, i had a cyst on my ovary that had ruptured). i absolutely hated it but my dr. &quot;assured&quot; me that it will take 3-4 months for my body to get used to the birth control and i took her word for it. my next set was amazing! i didn&#039;t bleed until my sugar pills but that leads me off to today. i was supposed to be off thursday and it&#039;s sunday. i am still bleeding heavy and i definitely do not want to bleed again for 3 months. terrible experience, read reviews before getting on any birth control!"
