"i am on alesse 28 for 3 months now (i usually skip the sugar pills), i  don&#039;t have any problems with it. no spotting, just a little nausea for the first 2 days but that&#039;s it. i didn&#039;t gain any weight nor did iose any. my breasts did go up one cup size. i was sexually active during my 2nd month and i continued to menstrate as indicated in my pamphlet i had received with my prescription. it works, and i&#039;m happy. it gives me peace of mind."
