I hate this pill! It made me NUTS! Anxiety, extreme headaches, sick, screwed with my period, I stopped taking it after 3 months because I couldn't stand myself and my poor boyfriend had to deal with me too. I urge all women not to take this pill.

very good treatment for birth control.only bad side to it you have to remember to take the pill.what i do is i leave it by my bed and take it at night before i go to bed.it also works for acne.i have had a clear face for months.usually i would break out every month before and after my period.it also decreases your menstrual flow and duration is shorter.

I used to be on Lo Ovral but that made my heart race constantly. And it caused quite a bit of acne. So I asked to be switched to something else which ended up being Ortho Cyclen, genericly, Tri Sprintec. I've been on Tri Sprintec for one month now...and have had no problems what so ever.
