I was put on Loestrin 24 FE because I was bleeding for over a month. The doctor did a D&C and I bled for another week. I was going to go on a progesterone cream but couldn't find one, so when I went back to the dr a week later we decided to try this pill. The nurse told me 99% of the women who go on it love it because they don't get a period or they only have a slight one. Needless to say, I was excited. I took the pill and within 12 hours I stopped bleeding and my emotions were stabilized. After 2-1/2 weeks on the pill, I started to spot then had a light flow until I started the brown pills on Sunday and got a real period. Tomorrow I start the 2nd pack but I am going to see if this bleeding stops by Friday and if not I am going to make an appt with my gyn to discuss a change of plan. I know it takes time for your body to adjust to a new pill, and my body is going through pre-menopause, but if I am put on a pill to stop the bleeding and I continue to bleed, that tells me the pill is not working for me. I have had headaches and tiredness this month, but my energy seems to be returning and the headaches aren't that much of a bother....yet. On the good side, my emotions are still stabilized and I am not snapping anyone's head off as I was for the past 8 months. That has been a plus with this pill.
