"i came off of yasmin due to the blood clot risks. lolo is the third brand i have tried and is by far the best. i commonly get headaches and it has been reduced after changing to this brand. there have been no negative side effects. i don&#039;t get any cramps or periods at all. i may get spotting every couple months for 2 days, but that&#039;s it. i would recommend this brand to anyone if they can afford it, as it is not covered by all insurance and is slightly expensive."
