"i&#039;ve been using this bc for a year now. the first month i was on it i didn&#039;t notice a change at all but the second month was torture. i had my period for 2 weeks straight, mood swings, headaches, dizziness etc. i was told to just wait it out until the 3rd month ended to see how it went so i did. the 3rd month was much better and by the 4th month my periods only lasted 3 days with very light bleeding. the reason i got on this was for really heavy bleeding so this pill was a blessing! everything has pretty much been good since then. no acne and i didn&#039;t experience any weight gain until the 10th month but that&#039;s because i&#039;m not really eating correctly. i still experience mood swings and i have a lack of energy but overall it&#039;s great!"
