Comment:
I love this pill! it comes in 3 month packs and you only get your periods once at the end. I never had spotting and I had easy short periods. I stopped taking while my husband and I tried for a baby, and after our son was born, I went rite back on it, happy as can be. Best part, since you only get your period if you take the yellow pills..

I decided to give it one more go, and the same exact thing is now happenin
