I'm 28 years old and just began my second pack of Loestrin. The biggest annoyance is the fact I've been bleeding for 3 of the last 4 weeks. I got my period on schedule and began taking the pills the first day. The period lasted 11 days. Then I had a normal week. Then I started bleeding again, with less cramping but more bloating. The bleeding has been going on for 11 days now. My breasts are tender but not uncomfortable. Mostly my moods are normal but there are short spans when I get overly emotional(the sad, not angry type). Especially the first week I was taking the pill. I've gained a little weight but I'm hoping it's just from the holiday feasting. But darn this bleeding. My Dr. say it's just my body adjusting but I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I'm giving it another month before deciding if I should give it up or not. Also, my face has been breaking out more.
