Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone
"I've been taking the pills for 4 months now. I was using  the mirena for 7years prior. Pros: no pregnancy,very light menstrual cycle, and no spotting. Cons: 1 st month pregnancy symptoms, ongoing: increase appetite,  bigger breast with sore to touch, and headache from time to time. If you can control your diet and exercise the weight gain won't occur or would be more manageable."
