"i was on this for almost 4 years. it worked great, my periods were really heavy and i had a lot of cramping but when i started taking this i had little to no period and no cramping. but this past year i&#039;ve realized it has made me very moody. it and some other factors broke up my engagement because i was so moody and just a nightmare to be around sometimes. it made me bipolar. i stopped taking it a month ago and my boyfriend says he can notice a difference in my mood. now i&#039;m back to heavy periods and lots of cramping. it feels like i have to choose between my relationship and my bc. my insurance paid for some of this, but i still had to pay $50 a month. but i would call my dr and they would give me a discount card and samples."
