i was on it before i switched to Seasonique. i really loved it! much lighter and shorter periods, less painful as far as cramps and such, clear skin, and overall it really worked for me. but i liked the idea of getting only 4 periods/year MUCH more!

Re: NWR: LOestrin 24?
I used to be on it but switch a few months ago to Seasonique (just so I have less periods per year). Loestrin worked great for me 6 years, but because it is such a low dose of hormones they say some people will spot a lot with it, although I never did. When I was on it my period would last less then a week (ie monday-thurs/fri).

I'm on Loestrin 24. I really like it. I've heard some negative things in the past about it but nothing bad has ever happened to me. I get my period like clockwork and it's three days long, if that!

gave me really bad headaches (and i never get headaches) so i switche off after 3 months. the idea of spotting or skipping periods scared me too.

I just started it a month ago to prevent gettting more ovarian cists. I don't seem to have any problems with it. I was worried about spotting but I haven't experienced it. You can always ask for a few trial packets.

I was crazy moody, bloated and gained weight...not a good pill for me! Lots of people like it though!

Re: NWR: LOestrin 24?
I am on it now. I have been on about four different pills. I have been on Loestrin 24 for about a year now and it is going great. I do suffer from Migraines, but I think that is with any pill. I get my periods on a Sat. and it is barely there and only lasts three days. I am very happy and hope to stay on this one until we start trying!!!
