Positive Aspects of Orthocyclen:  Acne Control, Light Periods

Negative Aspects of Orthocyclen:  Packaging

Reason for taking Orthocyclen:  Contraception

Additional Comments:  Ortho Tri Cyclen has been my drug of choice for contraception since I have begun to take it. Since beginning the drug I have had clearer skin, lighter periods and minimal cramps. I have found that the time off of the prescription has only accentuated the benefits found from taking the pill. I have had less breakouts, and lighter periods often lasting less than three days! The only downside of taking it is the packaging, the blister packs are difficult to break open at times. It is more than 99% effective and a favorite of all my friends due to the lack of side effects!
