"i started this birth control a few days ago and been dealing with bad cramps, stomach pain, and tightness in my stomach when i yarn or cough. it&#039;s just so awful that i stayed in bed most of the day. i discontinued it today and going on another birth control that i love and had no side effects. my doctor switched me to cryselle despite me telling her i want to stay on the other one, now she switched me back. not trying to scare anyone but it&#039;s best you avoid this medicine."
