"this is the first birth control i&#039;ve ever been on. i am currently near the end of my third week. i was hesitant to try it because of the reviews. however, the only side effects i have noticed (so far), the first week i got a small break out on my face that cleared up within two days. my breasts have gotten a bit larger and this week (3rd) i have some mild breast tenderness. that&#039;s about it. no weight gain yet, no moodiness, didn&#039;t seem to affect my libido. but it&#039;s only the first month, so we&#039;ll see if anything changes. seems good though."
