"i know everyone is different, but generally speaking i would recommend this medicine. it cleared up my acne beautifully and has been a very reliable form of contraception. i haven&#039;t had any huge changes in emotions or weight gain. the only negative thing is that i do feel sometimes it affects my concentration in school, although i&#039;ve found this to be the case for most birth controls. overall, i&#039;m happy with it. i have also been on syeda and had a similar experience."
