Birth Control
"I have been taking the Microgestin Fe for about a year, because it is available for free through my insurance as a generic brand although I began using Lo Loestrin Fe about a year prior, but it was too expensive to continue. I also have experienced very light to practically nonexistent periods. At first the periods were more normal but became lighter and sometimes only bleeding occurs 1 or 2 days. My normal menstrual cycle is usually 3 to 4 days when taking a different brand (previously I used to take Ortho Novum and Alesse which seemed to work fine for me). My menstrual cycle on Microgestin does seem to skip a month, or it is so light it is hardly noticeable. No nausea symptoms, because I always take birth control pills with food."
