birth control
"I've tried all types of birth control and this one is by far the best. I had spontaneous zits on my face but no severe acne however with this birth control I rarely have ANYTHING on my face.  (keep in mind it took me about 3- 4 months for it to completely clear up my skin) which is normal.  No weight gain. Very short periods. Only negatives it's that I cry like a baby over any emotional movie.  Like I can't even control it,  it's crazy.  But I'll take that over a pimple face any day.  I also like this specific birth control because my previous one used to make me bruise very easily,  but I see improvement with this type."
