"i have been on this pill for about 6 months now. the first 3 months i was sick for the first week of every pack. the first month i had my period 2 weeks early and skipped the second month completely. since then i&#039;ve had my period regularly. it has become very light and only last about 3 days. i experience slight cramps the first day of my cycle. sex drive decreased the first 2 months but is normal now. i had horrible mood swings but they are settling down now. overall, the medicine has not been too bad. a lighter period is great plus i&#039;m being protected. but i have heard of people having missed periods. i am currently having my 2nd missed period since starting. we use a condom too but i&#039;m still scared.
