"i have polycystic ovarian syndrome and i have tried a lot of different birth control.  i used this particular formulation for about a year.  unlike the others, i did not bleed through this one.  i did however cry at everything!  i cried when i saw cute kids playing, when kelso did cute things for jackie on that 70&#039;s show, and when i got good grades on tests. everything made me cry.  also, my breasts were tender all the time, and i never wanted sex, but that has been the case for all 7 years of birth control.   i did not notice any substantial weight gain."
