"Very unhappy with this pill. Never had any issues with any other brand I've been on, but I lost my insurance and had to start going to Planned Parenthood. When they no longer carried the pill I was on previously, they switched me to Chateal. I didn't get pregnant, but had severe acne and weight gain. I gained about 20 pounds and couldn't lose it no matter how much I exercised. Definitely was irritable on it, too. But my periods were much lighter and shorter with less cramping. I quit taking it since I'm not currently having any sex, and things got so much better. My acne cleared up after a week and I started losing all the weight I gained right away. I'd definitely keep an eye out for the side effects though."
