"i&#039;ve been taking desogen for a year now after not being happy with lutera. as birth control it works good (i.e. not pregnant). i don&#039;t have any breast tenderness like i used to and i have gone up a cup size. i had mild to moderate acne before taking the pill and it has helped it clear up a lot! i only break out right before a period. and my periods are very predictable and only last 3 days (versus the usual 7 i had experienced before). however, when i first started taking it i noticed a prolonged time of spotting but it did eventually go away and i am pleased overall with this pill!"
