"i was on this birth control for about a year and i don&#039;t know why i waited so long to get off of it. i had cyctic acne all over my face (i used to never break out before this pill) and i lost 20 pounds. i&#039;m not a big girl in the first place but this pill got me down to 90 pounds because of the severe nausea. also, i was moody the entire time i was on it. went on ortho tri cyclen and it saved my life."
