"i&#039;ve been on this pill for the past ten years and i love it. i&#039;ve never had a menstrual cramp in my life, i never feel pms symptoms (bloating, cravings, moodiness, etc). it has been helpful with acne. one downside is my sex drive has diminished but it&#039;s hard to tell if the pill is the culprit as i&#039;ve been on it ten years. no weight gain from this either!"
