"i wanted to chime in because most of the people writing reviews had bad experiences--i doubt most people who are happy with a drug will go online to write a review. i took loestrin and minastrin for several years (bioequivalent to taytulla), loved them both, switched to taytulla about a year ago, don&#039;t notice any difference. for me, they are fantastic birth control. the only side effects i have are going from 8 day heavy periods to no periods, no spotting ever, and clearing up the cystic acne i would get during ovulation and my period. total win for me. i tried many different kinds of oc in my twenties and really didn&#039;t like any of them, so feel so lucky to have found this in my late 30s. everyone&#039;s body will respond differently."
