Ive been on desogen for more than 6 months now and yes...i got it for free from planned parenthood too. Iv'e noticed that i am much more moody than usual when i have my period, but the cramps don't hurt as bad and my acne is gone. I have gained at least 15 - 20 pounds in the past 6 months. I think it's the pill.I cry easily and i get upset easily. I'm more gassy and i feel bloated and flabby...Maybe that's the real birth control...i'll be so disgusting, that my boyfriend wont want to have sex with me.
