I was on it for 7 years after I had DD. Never had any problems. Insurance just stopped covering it. Yasmin is another good one. DR. just put me on Levlen last month aka Seasonale. HATE it. So far 3-4 lbs of water weight.

I take Ortho tri-cyclen (just regular, not lo). I've been on it going on 10 years now.The only weight I gained is when I didn't take it- and I got pregnant! LOL
