"this pill didn&#039;t work for me. i was it for 3 months.  i spotted for several weeks (probably 6 weeks), gained weight (went from size 0 to a 4 -6) and felt depressed and suicidal. i switched back to a pill i had been on several years ago (levora/portia).  it&#039;s been 2.5 weeks since i switched pills and i already feel back to normal.  i&#039;m back to size 0, mental health is normal, and no more spotting. jolessa didn&#039;t work with my body&#039;s chemistry but that doesn&#039;t mean it doesn&#039;t work. the birth control pill is trial and error, in my opinion.  find what works for you."
