Birth Control
"I am 18 years old, I have been on Loestrin 24 Fe for 1 year and 2 months so far and I am very happy with it. Before the pill I had unbearable cramps and my periods were very heavy, however within the first month on the pill my period became light, lasting 4-5 days, and my cramps became barely noticeable. As far as side-effects, honestly, I can be very irritable and/or emotional at times and occasionally a little nauseous, but that only lasts for a couple of minutes. Also, I did not gain any weight. I would recommend trying this pill, however everyone reacts differently."
