I have not been on the pill for 16 years. When I was I became emotional and had some water gain. Can I expect the same this time?

my doctor recently put me on the pill (a different brand) at age 39, and i had not taken the pill for about 15 years too. I have not had any side effects as of yet. good luck!

I am on this medication and I didn't have any side effects. I didn't gain any weight on this medication, but I do gain water weight right before my period (who doesn't), but after it is done I lost that excess water. I like this pill a lot, but everyone is different. Good luck!

Isn't 40 a little old to be taking birth control? The risks are very high for blood clots.....And if you smoke too, you're at extremely high risk.

Why ddin't your doctor tell you? There should be an insert in your Rx package that tells you what your expected side effects are.

Why did you not ask your doctor about this?
