Experience

It worked for me for nearly 2 years. But sadly I must have forgotten to take it or been ill and fell pregnant and as I didn’t have periods and didn’t gain much weight, I only found out when I was 7 months! But that was just MY personal experience. Like I said I used it for 2 years and it did work, so if you consider this pill then make sure you take it religiously everyday and don’t miss it! And if you do miss it make sure to use condoms for 7 days to make sure you don’t get caught out!
