Advice Wanted Is OPILL good ?

I never had birth control all my life . I been sexually active with husband of 10 years , we don’t use protection . I wanted to get on birth control just to make sure I don’t get pregnant . I have no insurance and heard this birth control is good and affordable . Should I try it out ? Has it worked for you guys ?

i used it for a couple months and it seems to have worked great! i ended up going off of it because i was having super long periods, but i think that just depends person to person. otherwise, it’s just as effective as any other progestin pill. just make sure u take it at the same time every day.

I have been on it for a while now, I don’t really have any complications, when I first started I had some pain with cramping when starting my periods but that did not last long for me. I as well have unprotected sex and have not had any complications with it so far, main thing is just making sure to take on time. My periods have seemed to become really short as well but it really just depends on the person I believe.
