"Decided to start Ortho Tri-Cyclen to improve menstrual cycles, PMS symptoms and acne that have grown increasingly worse over the past few years. Been taking it for the past month and I haven't had any nausea - a big plus. (I'd make sure to eat something before I take the pill though) Also, no spotting at all. But I have had deep fatigue, more moodiness/depression, and especially breast swelling/tenderness lasting almost the whole month. However, now I've started my period and have had no cramps, only light bleeding and my energy is back. I think my acne is getting better, though time will tell how much Ortho helps. Long term benefits should outweigh the temporary discomfort, but every woman's different. You'll have to see if it works for you."
