birth control
"I have been on this pill for almost 3 years. I think its a little silly seeing people who have only been on this pill for a month-under a year comment on here because I did not see the effect this pill took on me until a year or two down the road, but I suppose everyone is different. Anyway, for the first 9 months- a year or so I was experiencing minor headaches from this pill, I did not gain or lose any weight that I was aware of, but I am also a very active person. Further, my period was nearly constant for the first few months on the pill, & prior to starting Microgestin my period was very regular. I could predict its start & end dates easily & it came right on time every month. Now however, I rarely have a period at all, & its awesome!"
