Hi Starr,

I loved Alesse! I had to stop it due to blood clots from something unrelated to the pill, but if I could, I'd definitely try it again!!!!! I felt great while taking Alesse. Most OCP's will help acne....I guess drug companies just haven't paid to do the studies, except for Ortho TriCyclen.

It has been said on this forum that the average weight gain while taking OCP's is approximately 5 lbs.

Try it, you might just like it ;o)......

Hope this helps.
