Plain and simple, I hate this pill.I have been on it for a little over a year now and it changed me completely. I experience sever anxiety to the point where I will get all ready for the day and be fine and then *bam* the anxiety hits and I crawl back into bed for the day.Ortho has also caused me to get frequent headaches. It is ( I just stopped the pill) to the point where I am throwing up once or twice a week with very painful migraines. I have no sex drive at all.My breasts are always tender. I have bad mood swings.I've gained weight. The ONLY good thing about this product is that my cramps aren't as sever as they used to be.
