"this pill is great! easy to take and has a nice minty flavor. the only side effect i&#039;ve had is light spotting here and there, but it&#039;s a very very minor inconvenience compared to all the positive things. i&#039;ve experienced no weight gain or acne, or anything like that. my periods are light, which is great. still have cramps sometimes, but they&#039;re not as bad as they used to be. sometimes i miss my period, but it&#039;s completely normal while on this pill. had a chat with my doctor about it. and best of all, i&#039;m not pregnant! i would recommend this to anyone, whether you are using at as birth control or to help improve your periods. details about me: 20 years old, no children, non smoker. i also have pcos, and it&#039;s definitely helped my symptoms."
