ive been on L24 for about 5 months now...my main reasons for starting were 1. Prevent Pregnancy 2. Be Less Moody i too experienced the heavy brown discharge for about a solid month in the beginning, my 2nd period was pretty normal flow and lasted about 4 days. my 3rd period was more like the brown discharge. my 4th was maybe 1 1/2 days...and this month i had no period..AHHH...i really can't be pregnant!! fortunately i feel a little better after reading these posts. i have had increased appetite and seem much more depressed that i used to be..i stopped the pack i was on three days ago...i just cant go with out having a period at all..that is my reassurance each month.. but from what some of you have said...not all pills are like this...i guess i will have to talk with my doctor about switching.

no period for five month...doc says its fine. just wante to let people know that i've been on Loestrin 24 for 14 months. I got my period lightly in the beginning and it began to taper and now i haven't had it for the last five months at all. i was concerned, took a million preg tests and at the end of the day my doctor (a leading NYC gyno) told me...If you take it every day, around the same time and don't mess up...you ARE NOT PREGNANT...so relax." good enough for me, hope this makes others feel better
