I took this pill for almost a year. It worked well. I never got pregnant.

Comment:
I have found this brand of BC to be great. I've been on it 5 years. I do have acne that is a little worse than normal around my mouth/jaw (one a month) but everything else is good. Periods are lighter, no bloating, no mood swings, no weight gain, no other adverse side effects. I do get headaches around my period sometimes since I've been on this.
