"this was my first birth control i&#039;ve ever had. my skin was clear but once i started taking this i had the worst acne. i was bloated, went from a size 3 to 7 within a week. i was nauseous, my breast were tender and swollen. my appetite increased. the only good thing about it was it increased my sex drive. i switched to ortho tricylen lo and i actually liked it but the only thing is it decreased my sex drive. now i&#039;m on aubra since planned parenthood doesn&#039;t have it anymore, so far no side effects."
