i just stopped taking Loestrin 24 after about a year of taking it i think it has been a little less than a week and i already notice myself feeling less moody and having less anxiety issues before i started this pill my acne was pretty bad, it took two packs and my face was completely clear of course i kept taking it because my skin was so beautiful, but my periods were NEVER normal and i had cramping and i think the pill was causing me to be slightly depressed i also had some weight gain while taking it and always felt hungry i gain about 10 pounds on it so its been a week now since i stopped taking it and my face has a slight breakout, but nothing too bad i was wondering how long it is going to take for the weight to come off and if my face is going to get really bad again obviously i have come to the conclusion that clearing my acne wasn't worth a 10 pound weight gain, irregular periods, and depression

I have only been taking this pill for 3 weeks and have noticed many of the symptoms listed on this page. Weight gain, acne, moodiness, headaches, etc. I stopped taking it 3 days ago -- please tell me the weight gain is not permanent!! How long before these symptoms subside, particularly the weight.
