Ethinyl estradiol / norgestimate
"First and last month on this. I did notice mild nausea for a half a day at the start of the pack but that went away quickly. I'm not sure if I've gained any weight but it sure does seem like it. My breasts are wayyyy more tender than they ever have been but the worst thing is the spotting. I've been spotting for the last three days and its so painful. My periods are usually easy and last only a few days. The cramps I've experienced before this pill were mild compared to the cramps brought on my Tri Lo. I was on Yaz when I was 18 and had NO issues with it so I'm going to try switching. The spotting is horrible and I think it's given me a yeast infection or something cause I'm unusually itchy. I'M DONE WITH THIS PILL!!"
