I took the pill for 7 years and went off earlier this year. I was put on like 8 different kinds and I always had issues with them. Also, I never realized it but it actually did make me gain weight, and it was so much harder to lose weight once you hit your plateau. Some pills made me want to cry all the time, others made me a complete B*tch to be around, some made me want to have sex, some made me not want it at all. I feel 100% better now that I'm off, my face is clearer now, I have no cramps, I'm not moody, it only last two and a half days now compared to a full 7 every two weeks, 10 pounds dropped off, and I don't have to train as hard to lose weight.
It's all about your own body and chemistry and how it reacts to the BC you take. Just remember there are many different types of pills and you may not get the correct one the first time... Listen to your significant other as far as your moods.
