"my skin cleared up within a few months! (i was also on doxy and used clindamycin though) i dropped 15 pounds, and i never got the emotional side affects or anything. although, i never got cramps before and now i get some rough ones. they&#039;re not unbearable, but they hurt and need a heated blanket sometimes. i also have a longer/heavier period. went from 3 days to 5/6. (i had a super light period and i&#039;d consider it pretty normal now so it&#039;s not awful.) i&#039;m also not currently pregnant."
