"i have tried every form of birth control, with the exception of an iud, and i find this pill to be the most successful one by far. it took my body just two months to properly adjust to the timing of the active pills. i&#039;ve been on this now going on 5 months and i couldn&#039;t be happier. my period lasts between 2-4 days, my cramps are very light, i do not get any negative side effects like some people have mentioned, i get less acne during my ovulation period and my headaches have gone away. my bf and i have unprotected sex around 3 times a day and so far so good! i can&#039;t say that everyone will benefit the same as i have, but if there were a bc that i could recommend to anyone, it would be this one."
