"I am in my third package, and I have to tell you that I cannot be more satisfied and happy with this pill. No side effects at all, my period comes normally. I have no acne, no headaches, no cramps, no spotting, no weight gain, no nothing, and most importantly, no pregnancies, LOL! I highly recommend this pill, but remember, every woman is different, and every human body is different, so maybe what is good for me is not good for you. It is up to you and your doctor. Cheers!"

"I started taking Alesse at the start of 2020. I used to take Diane-35 before. I started when I was 17 and had this one to help with my acne, which didn't actually help because I had to take Accutane. Anyway, in January, I asked my doctor to prescribe me another one since I didn't see the need to continue with Diane-35. I just realized that my anxiety has worsened, to the point that I wake up almost every day with anxiety. I am an anxious person, but it has never been this bad. I do think it might be because of this birth control, so I am going to stop it and see if changes anything."
