I never really paid much attention to side effects on pills because I have never experienced any adverse effects, until loestrin 24 fe that is! I couldn't believe how terrible I felt after only taking this for one week. I was tired to the point of not wanting to get off the couch. I felt so sick to my stomach that I couldn't eat more than a few bites of food at a meal. I cried at the drop of a hat and I felt so anxious I couldn't believe it. I decided to stop taking the pills even if it meant some horrible period for a month. I didn't care! The next morning I already felt ten time better. I can't wait to see how I feel tomorrow! I will never take this medicine again. And maybe now I will listen a little closer to possible side effects!
