Birth Control
"I have been on Loestrin for about 9 months now and took it to both reduce my period and birth control. I used to get my period for 7 to 9 days and it would be extremely heavy to the point I had to change every hour to 2 hours. Yes I know horrible, and ever since I started taking Loestrin I have mt period for 4 days at the most and it&#039;s super light. When I first started the pills I still would bleed a little between periods but after about 3 months all that went away. I used to forget but I use an alarm now and it works, I never forget now. I haven&#039;t had any side effects, no weight gain but I haven&#039;t gotten my period this month and I&#039;m not pregnant. I would rather have my period for at least a day so I wont get scared that I&#039;m pregnant."
