Comment:
I was on a previous birth control that has been discountinued. My doctor reccommended this pill in place of the other. I had a light period for 19 days, experienced sever moodiness and felt very emotional after a week of these pills. I also had weight gain which never was a problem before. I will be switching birth control pills!

Comment:
I have migraine headaches and this medication worked really well for me, since I was getting the same dose of medicine everyday. I especially liked being able to cycle 9-12 weeks apart instead of every 28 days, similar to the seasonal brand where you "skip" periods, one every 3 months. I could plan around vacations and holidays, which is great!
