Comment:
I have been taking this pill for close to six months now. No one warned me that one of the side affects could be hair loss. Now I'm losing patches of hair. Switching to a non-hormonal copper IUD. If hair loss or thin hair runs in your family STAY AWAY!

Comment:
When I went on this I had terrible mood swings and depression. Things that would normally be minor annoyances would lead to hours of crying and wondering how I would up in that state. I felt completely out of control of my own emotions.
