The side effects from the pill will be different on everyone, and can also depend on what pill you are taking. Some of my friends experienced singnificant weight gain in a very short period of time when they were on the pill. For myself, it did help my cramps and also helped with period breakouts. I also do believe it has stirred up and disturbed my hormones to a certain degree. Since I began taking the pill, i find myself edgier, more emotional and just plain bitchier. I also have some friends who have experienced similiar things and havent quite felt "themselves" on it. It's all about trying to find the right pill for you.
