I didn't say that I didn't believe in the side effects, it's just that everyone seems to be upset at exp them, as if they didn't know they were possibe? It's all written in the liturature, as for those of you whose doctors deny any association, you need to find a new doctors, or just have the device removed, I also saw posts in regards to doctors denying that the horomone enters the blood stream, well it does, the company admits that, but it is in very minute doses compared to other bcp's with the same horomone taken orally! Any doctor who denies that is very misinformed! As i said with any drug there can be side effects, but atleast be informed before you get the product. I am sorry that you had a bad exp, I hope I don't in the future but if I do I will take it out but I won't be angry that it happened as I knew the risks!
