"my sister switched to this birth control after i had such a success with it. i haven&#039;t noticed any weight gain, in fact i have successfully lost weight on it after making some dietary changes. i get more emotional than usual the first day back on it after taking the 4th week off. besides that, no complaints. so glad to find a birth control that works for me without any crazy side effects. been over 2 years on it now. love it."
