"hate this. i&#039;ve been on this birth control for one year now. i gave it a chance. i have been bleeding for 9 out of the 12 months. two weeks after i got it i had massive depression that lasted for 2 weeks. i guess it was my hormones changing. then nonstop bleeding and cramps. sometimes they were very light but it was extremely annoying and expense to be buying so many tampons. i also gained about 15 pound over the last year and i work out and don&#039;t over eat. its very difficult trying to get the weight off. don&#039;t use this. your doctor will say its great and you won&#039;t have to worry about taking a pill every day. don&#039;t do it...its a trap."
