"i was on microgestin fe 1/20 for about eight months. the first few months were alright and normal, typical birth control stuff. out of nowhere, i realized i would find myself crying over absolutely nothing, have these awful mood swings, and had zero sex drive. finally fed up with it i went to my gyno and they switched me to apri. i&#039;ve been on apri for a week and i feel 100x better than i did on microgestin and i have a sex drive back!!"
