I've been on Loestrin24 for about a month. I have been having a lot of nausea, but that's about it. I've tried many other kinds of bc pills before, and they all have side effects. Everybody responds differently!! How many women have taken any birth control pill for the first 3 months with NO side effects??? If there is one out there PLEASE tell me what it is..............Deal with them or have your tubes tied or be celibate..Those are the other options...lol

I just started the Loestrin 24...today is my second pill. reading all these posts worries me, however, I did take a pill many years ago and really didn't have any side effects! I maybe am the exception to most rules this way, but I had no problems. I can't for the life of me remember the name of it, as it's probably been 10 years maybe. I am chuckling at any worries about bigger breasts...bring it on!! LMBO!!! I would LOVE to have that issue, but I understand there also needs to be a certain comfort zone for a person too. I'm barely an A...even after 5 children. It's disappointing to say the least. I just had my period last week...like spotting the 13th. Started in the middle of the night (14th) and bled not nearly as heavy as I have been and just Thursday/Friday. Nothing Sat.. or Sun. Today I break out bleeding again. Kind of what I expected, as i never have 2 days of period ever. usually 4 with spotting the 5th. Sometimes I have one day towards the end where i think maybe I'm done, with nothing for an entire day, and then I'll have another day or so or period. Joy.....

I wonder what this pill will do for me. I def don't want any mood swing crap going on, as I have some chemical imbalances already. I worried about weight gain, as I don't want that either (well unless it's getting bigger breasts! LOL!!) How long were you all on this pill before side effects kicked in good? I've taken a whopping 2 pills so far. I hate having a period at all, so I really don't want breakthrough bleeding. UGH! No issues with this on the last pill I took. But this should stop after a few months anyway, right? So...I'll deal. Good luck to everyone!
