I have been on altavera for a year and a half now, and I have a few questions for you ladies that have taken it.

As for taking it, I take mine within an hour span each night. I don't have a set time like 9:30, but it is always between 9 and 10:30. Since I have just begun to be sexually active, I need to know if this is gonna affect anything. Because right now I don't need to be pregnant.

Secondly, did you have any side effects?

For the longest time I have thought that it was just me, but the more reviews I have read seem to hit my symptoms on the spot.

I have been VERY EMOTIONAL. On this pill. Like its almost destroyed my relationship. So much so that I went to the doctor and got on depression medication.

Next, since the years I have been on it, I have gained 40 pounds. Not blaming it all on the pill, but I've heard that some do gain weight.
