Pros Light, very predictable periods, no cramps, no pregnancy.
Cons Depression, moodiness, don't feel like self. No change in acne.
Bottom line Would not be on this unless I felt like I needed to for the meantime. Was put on it because of excessive bleeding during periods causing numerous fainting spells. Definitely thinking about going off birth control~! Hate it, mind feels very uneasy.
Price paid $15.00

Pros Didn't get pregnant, cleared up my skin after several months, regulated my period
Cons My hair fell out a lot when I first started taking it.
Bottom line After several months, my face was flawless from this stuff. It works and I didn't really have any side-effects. I only went off of it because I was tired of taking a pill everyday.

Pros didn't get pregnant and my boobs look fabulous
Cons if you take it really early in the morning before you eat, you'll feel nauseated
Bottom line It's great and has worked very well for me considering the fact that before I started Ortho, my period came maybe once or twice a year. My skin never looked better and my Boobs are great
