I have been on Ortho Tri cyclin and Tri-Nessa both for years before starting Tri-Sprintec 5 mos ago... Both of the previous two had good effects.. I had no problems and felt barely any changes in my body... Now on Tri-Sprintec I am moody beyond belief for the entire three weeks of pills.. Also I have what seems like a constant dull cramping and headached have had some spotting.. I have gotten my period at the end of each pack but its heavier than with the other pills... And lasts about week as opposed to 5 days.. I never had acne on the others but on Tri-Sprintec I get many huge, painful pimples that start deep down and hurt the whole month.. And the last and most wonderful side effect is that I have gone from 125 to 140lbs in 5 mos.. I have NEVER weighed more than 125 and in fact since I was 15 years old to my current age of 32 I have stayed at 125 lbs.. I work out 5 days a week doing spin class weighs and jogging each day... I'm switching back to Ortho-tri-cyline at the end of my current pack... End of horror story..
