Birth Control
"I actually really enjoyed taking Microgestin! I was on Loestrin for about 7 years when my insurance stopped covering it so I had to switch, I went thru gildess, Yasmin, Yaz etc. hated them all until I got on Microgestin. I never really had any side effects, no cramping, no break through bleeding. I did have some very mild weight gain &amp; anxiety throughout the time I was taking the pill but I don&#039;t attribute it Microgestin. The one thing I will say is that once I started this pill, I stopped having periods which can be a bit unsettling for some women who like that reassurance, so just thought I&#039;d put that out there. For me - as someone who had very heavy and painful periods in the past - not having periods was a godsend."
