"i have been on it for little over a year now, starting it when i was 17. i was a bit moody at first, but no weight gain, acne did clear up decently. no pregnancy scares with my boyfriend. definitely lessened cramps and flow once a month. however, after the one week on it each month i have mild cramps and light flow. happens for a few days then back to nothing. still have a period each month but pain and flow greatly reduced."
