Lo Loestrin Fe reviews?

Question

My gynecologist prescribed me Lo Loestrin Fe to help regulate my irregular period(length between cycles has been 16-28 days, most often being 16) and try to regulate my hormones, which always seem to be out of whack. 
I've always suffered from mild to severe acne, and I am worried that taking this pill will worsen my acne or give me body acne(which I've luckily not suffered from). I've read a lot of reviews online, all being negative regarding acne and weight gain. Yes, I know most reviews online are going to be bad, but I'm wondering if anyone else had a similar situation with this type of BC? How did it affect your acne? Was it worth trying?

Answer

I'm on the same thing. No acne or weight gain! I haven't really had any bad side effects. I like it.

Answer

I have been taking it for years with no problems. I actually just stopped taking it this month because my husband and I would like to try and get pregnant and I've been a hormonal nightmare ever since lol apparently it was keeping me sane!

Answer

I used it for a month. I felt like it made my hormones wacky and I was crazy but no weight gain or acne

Answer

I started taking it to regulate me and it did it's job fine in that perspective. I did gain a little weight but I don't think it was just the bc alone that caused that 😅 hehe. But on a more serious note I did have to stop taking it last year because my periods starting lasting longer and longer. I've always had a extremely heavy flow and that never changed however the last period I had on the pack I spotted and lightly bled for around 14 days or more. After that which was the worst incident I switched to a 3 month pack called camrese which worked fine.

Answer

I've been on it for about a year and it's the only one that really didn't make me feel crazy or gain weight or have acne issues! I recommend it!

Answer

I've been on it for a month so far. Made my breasts so much bigger (I have to go buy new bras now 😞), actually gave me acne when I did not have it before, and also caused some terrible breakthrough bleeding. The only good thing I've noticed is it calmed my mood swings a lot but I'm not sure that's worth the side effects I'm having.

Answer

Thank you for all of your input! It's helped me in my decision making process! I'm planning on beginning during my next month's cycle. (I have a wedding I am in and don't want to risk scary or upsetting physical/mental side affects before the wedding!)
