"i am in love with this pill. it is expensive without insurance, but it&#039;s been worth it for me. i haven&#039;t had a period in almost 5 years now. i haven&#039;t had any issues with temperament, weight gain or loss, acne, etc. i have a history of aural migraines, so any birth control with estradiol in it is a little more dangerous (which is essentially all of them), but with this i have noticed a huge reduction in headaches and complications with my vision during them."
