Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone
"Let me start off saying that this birth control is the worst. I have been taking it for a year now and I have never felt worse. The first 4 four months were okay I didn't notice any bad side effects except for minor cramps everyday. After about five months it started to get worse. I have gained 15 pounds and it's extremely noticable. All I crave is junk food. I'm way more irritable. And all the time. The week before my period is horrible. I often get bad PMS before my period. But the pill amplified it. It's even effected my sex drive, which is now non existent. The pill works for pregnancy prevention. But I would not recommend taking it."
