"i was very excited to get this put in because many other women had great results with it.  unfortunately, this was not a good fit for me. at first it was great, i wasn&#039;t having a period (for about 3 months), i did have occasional spotting but it didn&#039;t bother me.  then after a few months it was getting progressively worse.  i started having my periods closer and closer together until they just didn&#039;t stop.  i constantly feel tired, to the point where i do not want to get out of bed, i have no energy to do anything and i want to eat everything. i have lost a few pounds since starting this, but my weight does fluctuate so i am not sure if it is the birth control.  my friends have noticed a difference in my mood also."
