Maybe I'm one of the few - but I'm not having terrible side effects like it sounds most of you are having. I have a constant mild headache - which I've learned to deal with. My breasts enlarged - that wasn't a bad thing. And I have this weird fluttering thing with my heartbeats, but my dr. says it's nothing to worry about. However, I no longer have 2 week long periods that have beyond heavy bleeding. And the cramps I do experience don't even come close to what I had before I went on the pill. I've been on birth control now for 8 years (mircette for 6 years, Yasmin/ocella for 2). I would much rather deal with the side effects I'm having, than have to go through life with periods the way they were.
