Warning the question is kinda nasty and personal. To any reading that is willing to answer: When I get my period now (since I've started the pill) I don't bleed regularly.

So far I think they are great. My cramps before were so bad I had a prescription for vicodin, now they have disappeared. I haven't had any break outs, and I use to be able to tell when my period would start because I http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36520 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 21:12:59 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36516 First few months on this pill went fine. On the 4th month I started with the spotting. By the time the 5th or 6th month rolled around I would have my period it would stop for a few days and then start again at mid cycle. I was getting two periods per month http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36516 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 15:04:02 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36505 I started the pill about 2 months ago..and wow do i regret it..when i first started it i had migraines that lasted for hours..i mean before i used to get them but it was when i was stressed out or something but they would go away..i barely ever got acne on http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36505 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 14:46:30 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36504 I have been on loestrin for two months and this is my last pack and I'm going back to ortho cyclen. This pill gave me headaches, acne, and depression. I went on it to lighten my period and it gave me my period every week and a half. It also lowered my sex http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36504 Wed, 12 Nov 2008 07:37:39 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36479 I have only ever taken microgynon and loestrin 20.

I was put on Loestrin as a way to regulate my hormones and hopefully get rid of a cyst on my ovary. I hate these pills. I have two weeks left to go but have decided to stop the pills. My period was regular http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36465 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 19:31:13 -0500 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/36441 I have been on this for a few years now and I am thinking about switching to something else or going off completely.

I've even had to do an EMG and still no results on what's wrong with my leg. I'm very scared because my body is acting in ways I can't even understand.
