i was on it for 7 years and i had no problems what-so-ever with it, i stopped taking it for about a year though and fell pregnant and had a misscarriage. It was after my misscarriage that i started to develop problems. My periods would never come on time and sometimes wouldnt come at all, i would bleed in between peiods and it made me feel like poo, i spent a fortune on pregnancy tests because of the lack of periods. so now ive stopped taking it all together and my body had never been so great
