Ive been on the depo for 11 yrs and have never had a period. I got off the shot in February bc I wanted to conceive but hadn't had a regular period until last month August 26. It lasted for 7 days and it was awful!!! I just started my period today and it is very painful and heavy. My boyfriend comes home Wednesday and I dont want to still be on my period. If I start taking lo loestrin Sunday will it help stop my period?

Unfortunately, there is no way to say for sure, plus if you are taking it, you will most likely not be able to conceive, since it is also used to prevent pregnancy.

The FDA lists its other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irregular bleeding, and PMS-like symptoms.

How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?
