These posts do help a lot! I was looking at these because I am also on LOESTRIN 24 FE and have been for about 3 months and after having a very light but normal period, I had heavier bleeding and cramping during the first week of the white pills as well! I do like these pills because of the short period and little cramping but I have experienced some PMS symptoms like irritability and moodiness...I cry right before my period and that gets annoying for me and my boyfriend but I think every pill will have its own side affects. I switched to this pill because I was on OVCON 35 and have had terrible migraines for about 5 years until I figured out it was all the estrogen in my pills. After switching I haven't had a single migraine! MIRACLE!!!!! but I like this pill for the most part!
