I've used this particular medication for 28 years, first starting when I was 18. This is the only oral birth control that didn't cause me any issues or side effects. No extreme hunger, no leg cramps, no headaches. I won't use anything else.

While using Modicon, I had very severe reactions to the medication. I had severe headaches, worse acne, and extreme irritability. As soon as I stopped taking it, and switched to a different birth control, all of my symptoms went away.
