"i recently switched off of this birth control after 10 months. i had no complaints for the first couple of months. my cup size increased from a 34b to a 36c. i am naturally prone to depression, so when i started to have suicidal ideation and deep depression i at first attributed it to my own mental state. after a few months, i finally realized that i consistently got my period in the week following the worst bouts of depression, leading me to believe that my birth control was at least partially responsible. i gained 20 pounds and experienced difficulty with motivation. i finally switched because i experienced two days of constant bleeding (&quot;spotting&quot;) two weeks into my cycle for five months in a row."
