birth control
"It's been the best that I've tried. My periods are relatively light and not super painful as a result of taking this. Spotting is occasional.  Cravings for pastries are near constant but that may just be me. I do have some mood swings but it's not at an unbearable level and for the most part they are average low, rather than an insane depression. Some of my side effects are residual from other birth control pills.  My extra 10 lbs, lowish sex drive, which this hasn't helped but hasn't made worse either."
