Im 20 years old, have a 5 month old baby girl, and have been on Loestrin for about 3 months now. Before i got pregnant, i was taking Loestrin and i was having HORRIBLE back pain, headaches and my husband thought i was CRAZY b/c of all the mood swings and crying. Needless to say, i quit taking the pill. About 4 months later, i was pregnant. After i had my baby, i decided to get back on BC b/c i do not want another baby right now. I started taking Loestin again, hoping it wasnt the pill that was makin me crazy. The first 2 months were ok. I started my period fine, i wasnt acting "crazy" and my back pain was normal(i have scoliosis). Now im on the 2nd week on my 3rd pack. I have been bleeding for about 8 days now, for no reason. I had my normal period and after the first week of the pack i just started bleeding out of no where. I also have noticed that i am very irritable and moody(like before) but much worse this time. I find myself getting aggrivated at my 5 month old and SHE CANT EVEN DO ANYTHING TO MAKE ME MAD!! SHE'S ONLY 5 MONTHS OLD. I cant take this anymore. I am not going to take Loestrin anymore. I agree with some people that side effects vary from person to person, but there are to many people taking Loestrin with the same side effects. I wouldnt recoment this for anyone!!
