I have been on Loestrin 24 fe for the past 4 years. Everything was fine the first year to my knowledge. Now that I have gotten older and started noticing things more recently I have become worried about being on the pill. I haven't had a period in 3-4 years and when some might say its a blessing I am starting to get worried about it. In the last 4 years I have gained and lost weight dramatically but now it I haven't been able to lose any weight started working out and eating less but going no where. Gained 15 lbs in 3 months. My hair is starting to fall out more than usual. I have been getting really nausea lately feeling like I am going to throw up, my vision is becoming worse but went to the eye doctor and my prescription is the same. My anxiety is getting worse and had to be but on Zantax to calm me. I had to take a pregnancy test the other to make sure i wasn't pregnant because of the most recent symptoms. I going to go off the bill tomorrow to see if a difference is made of not being on it.

I've had the same symptoms and I've been on loestrin for 6 years. Hair loss, terrible moods and acne. Has anything changed since you've been off the pill? Has anyone asked their doctor if it's ok to just stop after several years? I'm thinking of pulling the plug very soon.
