"i&#039;ve been told that many people have negatively reviewed this birth control, and i&#039;m honestly a bit surprised at that. i am 17, and i take orsythia for birth control as well as period regulation, and it does a fine job at both of those. i take the pill very faithfully every night and rarely miss a dosage. i am not pregnant, so the pill is doing its intended job, and i also get my period for about 4 days during the row of white pills. the only thing i don&#039;t like is that i break out a little bit more than i did on my previous pill. other than that, i recommend at least trying this medication."
