"this pill has been better than the last 2 brands i tried. i was on tri-sprintec for about a year, which i don&#039;t know why i put up with it that long. i wanted to throw up all the time! second i was on tri-previfem which is also supposed to be the same pill, that one was even worse. it left a terrible taste in my mouth and made me gain weight, had even worse nausea and worst of all i acted like a monster! i was so irritated with everything. my doctor decided to have me try trinessa, which all three of these pills are same as ortho tri-cyclen. this time though, it actually worked. i feel back to myself again. i have been on it about a year. i have had a little weight gain and sometimes slight headaches. but overall i like it."
