I used to be on it years ago...

earlier this year went back to Dr wanting to go back on it again.... he wouldnt let me saying there had been research done suggesting it causes cancer and he wasnt allowed (Or i think advised is the technical term) to prescibe it anymore

even though i really wanted it he refused.

oh. i asked to go on it and have been put on it now. but i had to try various creams and antibiotics first and this was a last resort. It increases the risk of blood clots or something

DD has been on it for about a year now - I think it took about 6 months before there was a real improvement, but it really is a lot better now.

It gave me rotten migraines when I took it years ago.

My spots weren't particularly bad, I took it because of other PCOS symptoms. I think the improvement started within the first month.
