"i have read some of the reviews and sort of agree with all of them. i am 20 years old and a first time user of birth control. i did not want to gain any weight and my doctor assured me that this was the best one to be on. i am on my second pack and i feel like i have gained a whole other person and my breasts feel and look enormous. i eat healthy and i exercise constantly. the best part is that i was not in any type of pain whatsoever when i got my last period. i think i will stick with it for another month or so to see if i gain anymore or see any other effects.  but i do agree everyones body is different.
