"to those of you experiencing side effects within the first 3 months-i would advise you to stay on it and see if the side effects subside. for the first 2 months or so i had persistent crying for no reason at all (my boyfriend was unbelievably confused), but that went away after 2 months. also, i had terrible, painful, oozing acne all over my face ever since about 4th grade, but after a few months of levora my skin is perfect. i have people constantly asking me what my secret is! my sex drive has stayed the same. i gained 20 lbs almost right away, but my pants still fit, so it&#039;s not a major problem for me. my only issue is with spotting and breakthrough bleeding. going to the doc tomorrow to talk about that"
