Jolivette worked great for me for almost 1 year. The reason I stopped was that during the 2nd year, I would stop getting my periods altogether for about 6 months. I loved this! Then I started getting them again, and they became irregular. Birth control is hard for me, because I'm underweight so slight changes in hormonal levels can make me imbalanced. This also lead to more migraines as well toward the end. I think it's a great birth control though with low dosage and virtually no side effects unless you're a tiny person like me. If I gain more weight in the future I'd like to go back on it.
