"i&#039;ve been taking alesse for 3 months now and my experience was very poor. there&#039;s a number of problems i had with this birth control pill. number one is the nausea. everyday for the last couple of months i would feel slight nausea to the point where i thought maybe i was pregnant. i took pregnancy test numbers of times because i was worried if maybe i was really pregnant. i did some research that the pills give you nausea so i waited and continued taking it with food before intaking it and still nothing worked. on top of that i&#039;ve gotten severe acne, i don&#039;t usually get acne, my skin is clear but once i started taking the pill my acne grew worse it&#039;s really bad now. lastly the mood swings and period cramps which were terrible."
