Comment:
This birthcontrol made my skin clear up and stopped breakouts. It also made my periods extremely regular and a little lighter (took a couple months on it). It didn't cause me weight gain. IT MADE ME CRAZY. Right when I started it I would cry hysterically all the time. Depression and anxiety increased a lot. It made me super stressed all the time and self conscious. Bad mental side effects.

I was on neocon for 6 years due to very bad menstrual problems and it worked great for me. my doctor switched me to this brand and i absolutely hate it. i stopped taking it after 2 months, it made me so moody and my emotions were completely out of whack. I do not recommend this

Comment:
Have been taking Nortrel 1/35 for nine months. Was nauseous for first couple months, but that has gone away. Extremely light, short periods, no weight gain (although I've noticed some water retention in my fingers), keeps my acne away. If you can stomach the first months of nausea this is a really effective pill.
