"i&#039;m getting ready to finish up my second pack at the end of this week.  i have to say after the first month, i really debated to quit taking it.  i had horrible side effects.  constant headaches, muscle aches and spasms and my period was horrific. then again this was the first real period i&#039;ve had in years.  it came on my 2nd week and lasted throughout the rest of my pack and it was heavy.  like 3 boxes of super tampons heavy!  i was breaking out, cramps were terrible,  irritable and felt like i had no energy but i found out i was also extremely deficient in vitamin d and i needed more potassium.  now that i&#039;m taking my multi-vitamins, i&#039;ve found that my side effects have really subsided.  my period is light and my sex drive has increased."
