Hello Ellen,
If you have time, can you please read my post? I have had my progesterone checked since the Loestrin, and I have the progesterone levels of a man:-( I went to a homeopathic Internal Medicine Doctor who has been amazing. I had to be put on Bioidentical progesterone PO, from a compound pharmacy My family practice DR has been a little less than helpful. Just make sure you find a good doctor who is not going to tell you it is all in your head. The naturopathic way has been the best for me going through this HORMONE HELL. I say that, and I am truly a Christian woman. Best of luck, and let me know how things go.

HI IAM 31 MY DOC PUT ME ON THE LOESTRIN 24 I SMOKE SHOULD I TAKE THIS PILL MY E-MAIL IS TWIN08105@MSN.COM
Hello, I am 40 yrs old and just started taking this pill after several years of being BC free. I have no children but I have very heavy and crampy bleeding for only five days and that is why I was put on this pill... my first week I experienced worse cramps than before I started taking the pill... my period was also even heavier than normal... whatever that is. I am very bloated and my legs are swelling even more than before. I also experienced cramps in my thigh the first week. I am hoping it was just a shock to my body and it will adjust to the new pill... any advice?
