"after triphasil was removed from the market several years ago, i struggled to find a pill that worked for me.  i tried trivora and lo-ovral but my libido completely left me, and i had horrible mood swings most of the month.  eventually, i got off the pill all together.  after 3 years off the pill, i needed to get back on because of bad cramps, and my doctor suggested natazia.  it has been 5 months now, and i am thrilled with the results.  the first 2 months, i did not have a real period, just some spotting, but now i seem to have leveled out into a predictable cycle.  i have a few days of spotting 1 week before the inert pills, then i have a period that literally lasts only a day.  no cramps, minimal breast tenderness, and i feel like myself."
