I had been on Loestrin 24 Fe for about 2 years...I didn't even realize the doctor had switched my bc to that...just thought it was another generic name. I had gained 30 pounds and could not lose it even though I was running 2 1/2 miles everyday. My sex drive went to zero. I quit taking it about 8 weeks ago and am wondering if the weight will be easier to lose now. Has anyone quit taking this and can you tell me if the weight starts coming off?

I took Loestrin 24 for about a year, and just went off the pill a couple months ago. I too struggled with weight loss, because I gained about 10-15 lbs when I started the pill. Since then, I have quickly lost about 10 lbs, without even realizing it or trying. Loestrin definitely kept me from losing the weight I wanted to. So there's probably a good chance you'll lose the weight quicker too.
