Experience

With this pill I feel like I got unlucky with a lot of the bad side effects, including periods lasting longer than 3 weeks ( had to have medication given to stop/calm the bleeding) , experienced dizziness and fainting episodes, and extremely irregular periods. However doctors have mentioned that this pill effects a lot of women differently so I think I may have just personally had a bad experience and it may not be the same for others.
