I was on Loestrin for about 6 months. Main side effects were I was hungry ALL the time, no matter if I had dinner 5 hours ago or five mintues ago. I also had weird cravings. I gained about 10lbs on this pill and my breasts were a full cup size bigger and soar almost all of the time. I can say that moodswings were not an issue, which is the one of the only reasons why I liked this pill. My period completely stopped the third month, which was a plus, but I was more bloating while taking the pill than those short 4 days of the brown iron placebos. I am currently on my the beginning of my second week on aviane, the generic form of alesse and I am pretty sure I am experiencing severe moodswings because of it, but I am leary to think so because it is too early...has anyone else taken this pill?
