Comment:
this is my first time taking birth control, and i have been pleasantly surprised with reclipsen. i did not gain any weight, my skin stayed the same if anything possibly got a little better. i haven't noticed any unusual symptoms, but my sex drive has decreased. overall i would recommend it. i've been on it for 1 year, have not gotten pregnant, have barely noticed any changes at all.
