Bri, CA Apr 24th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Bigger boobs, no baby, light period, no moodiness, no significant weight gain, clearer skin. AKA the miracle pill. Cons: a little moody first month as my body got used to it, but now.. NO SIDE EFFECTS. Bottom Line: I will never want anything else. I've been taking this pill for over 3 years and I will keep taking it until I want kids. Maybe even after! The side effects are a huge plus: bigger boobs, clearer skin, light & regular period. I would and have highly recommend this option.

Kate, San Francisco Apr 13th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I know when I'm going to have my period now, my acne has gotten better. Cons: I feel more tired a lot more than I used to and I have weird mood swings sometimes but I can't decide whether it's from the the pills or not. Bottom Line: I'm not taking it as a birth control. Because of other medication I am taking it makes the birth control ineffective. I take it to regulate my periods because I would go months with out having one. Now I know exactly when I get my period. I haven't had any side effects that are unbearable. My boobs grew from an A to a C so if your in it for the boobs it might work out in your favor.

Anonymous, CA Mar 31st, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: lost weight, light periods, skin cleared a little. Cons: have to remember to take at the same time to avoid breakthrough bleeding and side effects. Bottom Line: I didn't really experience any moodiness till I missed a pill and had to take two in one day. Threw me off for days. My hormones are way outta wack, so this is why I take it. Don't know how well it prevents pregnancy, but I know I'm less moody than I was before. I used to be a nightmare. My breasts are tender, but I've lost weight. Nice.

Rachel, San Francisco, CA Feb 16th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Know when my period will start, no baby so far, easy to take Cons: Boobs hurt so bad for weeks, tender to the touch and are huge!! Nausea all the time, especially at night. Having weird cramps in the middle of the pack. Gained weight. Always hungry. I feel angry a lot and annoyed. Bottom Line: It might be ok for some people but It made my boobs huge and I'm already a 32 DD and my boobs hurt really bad. I feel sick every night and have actually thrown up a couple times, I'm not pregnant but it sure as hell feels like it. If you want bigger boobs then take this pill. Recommended: Yes Usage: Rachel has used this item for a few months. Acne severity: very light Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Mel, Iowa Feb 4th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I have been known to forgot to take a pill and it's reliable enough to know that taking it the next day I will still be fine. The pill is easy to swallow. Cons: MOODY CRABBY ANGRY woman... Basically the first week of pills I'm fine, but the last 3 weeks I'm a total mess and almost impossible to put up with. I need to switch soon! Bottom Line: It does it's job and if you don't have problmes with moodiness it's a good pill. I didn't notice a change in acne or have any breast side-effects.

Unicorn, Michigan Jan 11th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I didn't get pregnant. Cons: I had serious mood swings, increased anxiety, and was very emotional. My cramps were 10 times worse than when I was not taking Cyclessa.

Pros: Kept me from getting knocked up, short, light period. Cons: I keep feeling sick in the morning, which made me think I was pregnant,... Thank GOD I wasn't. Also, my skin broke out worse than ever. I'm pissy most of the time, too. Bottom Line: I got five months of the stuff from a clinic. I'll use it up, but then I'm switching to something else.
