"Honestly, I've tried MANY different birth controls that had bad side effects for me such as depression, suicidal thoughts, breakthrough bleeding, longer periods.. but this one has been the ONLY birth-control that I've had little to no symptoms with. The only difference is I really didn't experience breast tenderness with my other birth controls but with this one my breasts are tender & also I'm not quite sure when I'm suppose to start my period; I'm on my third inactive pill and haven't got it yet. With other birth controls I usually start within the first pill of the inactive or the last active pill. Birth control AFFECTS every woman different, its never the same for each person."
