I was only on this pill for a little over 2 months before a friend of mine came over and actually pulled them out of the package and flushed them down the toilet. I didn't have any physical problems with the pill at all but emotionally I was a reck! I would be angry one day and crying the next. Everything either made me extremely depressed or angry in the worst ways. My boyfriend couldn't take me ... Show Full Comment

I didn't have any physical problems with the pill at all but emotionally I was a reck! I would be angry one day and crying the next. Everything either made me extremely depressed or angry in the worst ways. My boyfriend couldn't take me and noticed how different I was. Pills work differently with everyone so reading reviews don't always work out to your benefit.

When I started Birth control I was given a really high pill it caused to many Hormones in my body and made me really sick; I also gained 15 pounds since starting birth control. I was vomiting stomach pains and signs of being pregnant, I took many at home test and a few at the drs and nothing. so I was given Lo Loestrin fe and I have felt a lot better.

I've been on Lo Loestrin Fe for four months now and I've had very little side effects. When I first started taking the pill my legs and arms tingled but it lasted two days if that. I've experience one episode of break through bleeding. I haven't gained weight, I've actually lost weight, no breast tenderness, no acne, I can be a little emotional every now and then but nothing out of the norm. I wou ... Show Full Comment

I've experience one episode of break through bleeding. I haven't gained weight, I've actually lost weight, no breast tenderness, no acne, I can be a little emotional every now and then but nothing out of the norm. I would definitely recommend this pill.

I have had pretty severe problems with PMDD that consist of mood swings, anger, weight gain, feelings of depression, sadness, and breast tenderness. I started taking this pill about 5 weeks ago and I have had great results so far. I've lost about 7 pounds and finally feel like I've found a pill that doesnt make my hormones go bananas! High estrogen levels run in my family, so this pill seems to have evened me out much more effectively than other types of BC I've tried in the past. The only thing I would say is a negative side effect is the lack of a period. I had a few days of freaking out, but since reading this is a normal side effect for this pill, I've been ok. I'm hoping after a few months it will even out and I will start having at least a day or two of a period, but we will see. Overall I've been very happy with this pill.
