Ethinyl estradiol / norgestimate
"I just started taking Sprintec because I had a large cyst (14x8) on one of my ovaries, which caused me to lose that ovary so my doctor but me on this to help prevent any future cysts. I'm only 16. Plus my periods were really irregular, it could be 28 days or 36 days before I would get my period and they always lasted 7 days. I only have minor cramps which is normal and so far the only side effect is I feel hungry after taking the pill at night. Before I had really bad acne so I used Proactive (which worked good for me) and so far the pill has not made me break out. So far I'm loving it and hope it stays this way! Definitely recommend but everyones body is different."
