"i  was so scared to go on this pill or any pill for that matter! read terrible reviews. did so much research and they all seemed like a bad choice. decided this seemed like the best bet. been on it 17 days and i love it. no weight gain, no acne, no hormonal mood swings. my only complaint is i am on day 8 of my period, (when i wasnt on the pill my period was 8 days long too) i thought this would make it shorter. i am hoping today is the last day, if it continues for longer, i will update my review. but so far,so good! i actually lost some weight taking this pill! happy girl here."
