"this pill did clear my acne, but it took about six months. it gives me this weird feeling like i am about to burst out in tears, but i do not because there is nothing to be upset about when i think about it. i was in a negative mental rut today, and i think it was due to this pill. no weight gain, and i hope the mood swings are not as bad as i am naturally already a  moody person. very effective in preventing pregnancy. i stopped it a year ago for a more natural method of b.c., but resumed taking it because my acne came back."
