I am on Zovia. I havent had any new acne which is good. I have had very irregular periods on it so far. I am in my third month and I have extra heavy periods in my third week of active pills. I will be checking to see if I have a period on active pills again this month...if so, doc changing my script. I do take Spiro separately as well. I have gained some weight on Zovia. About 10-15 pounds so far. The Spiro helps to keep it down a bit and I also exercise every day, which helps as well. I will say I like the bigger breasts on this pill. I was on Nuva Ring before. As much as I liked it....absolutely no side effects at all....the place it sat inside was too much for that area. It stung and burned so bad....had to switch. Years ago, I took triphasics...bad idea. I also used the Ortho Evra patch. Being a good idea aside, the patch made me have a neverending period. Not good. Yasmin. I tried this right after I finished breastfeeding my DD a few years ago. I totally had a horrible reaction to it. The most major mood swings I have ever had. I am very reluctant to try YAZ now because of that. Good luck in your search.
