"This has changed my life. I used to get really depressed and have wild mood swings. I have been on it for 2 months now, I have been nothing but happy. I don't get really depressed and when I do get down it is barely noticeable and I bounce out of it quick. Highly recommend this."

"I've had this birth control for a year now and I have mixed feelings. It definitely is effective at preventing pregnancy but for me the other consequences are too high. My periods while being on this birth control last for weeks at a time and sometimes seem to never stop at all. For instance this month I had my p...

"Got the Paragard inserted 2.5 years ago (8 weeks after a vaginal birth). My experience has been relatively positive.

"I inherited cystic acne from my father. He had severe cystic acne and was prescribed it immediately after it was approved by the FDA.

"I have had this implant for 1 year and 2 months now and it's the best type of birth control I have tried yet.

"I started Sprintec last November for my heavy periods, and for that it's working great. It has reduced my periods from 10 days to 5 days and after the first few months, they are now incredibly predictable.
