(Newest replies first)

Updated

I have been taking Lo Loestrin Fe for 4 months now and i have only had 1 peroid and that was in the first month. I have continued having weird reactions so i have chosen to stop the pill. I stopped it on a blue pill 3 days before i switched to the white. It has been 5 days now and still no period. When should I expect to get it? Pregnancy test was neg a week ago. This drug just really seems to have me messed up. Anyone have any helpfull info? Thanx!

I started taking lo loestrin fe at the end of August and stopped at close to the end of October or so. While taking the pill I had 2 periods for both packs and them lasting for a week or so. I have yet to start my period and that scares me. Before I got on the pill my period was finally starting to get normal. Since I was a teenager i've had problems in that department. I've contacted my ob and they said take a test and all that, but they are all negative. Still no period, but bloating. So i don't know what's going on???

Hi! I am considering going off of Lo Loestrin FE (it's actually worked really well for me.) Are there any side effects to going OFF of the pill, particularly this one?

I too was on Loestrin for about 3 years after switching from Yaz. I stopped taking it two months ago because me and my husband want to start trying to conceive. I have not had a period in two months, and preg. tests are negative. I too had horrible back aches, nipple soreness, headaches, mood swings, and weird cravings after stopping the pill. I have read up on this pill and from what I have read I will never go back on birth control again!!! It has screwed up my body big time. I never had a real period when on this pill- just spotting and brown stuff, which is not healthy. A doctor told me that some birth control pills thicken the lining of your uterus too much and it makes it hard to shed, and that is why you have lighter periods. But overall I do not believe that is healthy- the pill is stopping a natural process and look at what it has done to us!
I have had to be put on medicine before to make my body have a period- the medicine is an awful 8 day regimen that made me vomit every day. I couldn't finish the 8 days of pills it was so bad. I really hope I don't have to go on that pill again- I am so pissed off that doctors don't tell us stuff like this they just write prescriptions all day!!
I am going to the doctor tomorrow to see what she thinks I should do about this- I would like to wait it out and hope that my body recovers naturally. I hope everyone on here talks to their doctor about their condition to make sure it is nothing serious!

I never had any bad side affects when I was on Lo Loestrin Fe. I stopped having a period in the second month of taking it. I got concerned and did research. From what I've found, you won't get a period at all while taking this birth control. I stopped taking it almost 3 weeks ago (want to get pregnant later this year) to get back on a regular cycle before trying to have a baby and I have yet to get my period. I am glad to see I am not the only one, but I will be very concerned if a month goes by and I don't start my period. I will be consulting with my doctor if that happens.

I was on lo loestrin fe for about 4 months in the 4th month, I started getting stomache aches, head aches, pain through out the body, felt pretty sick. I felt so sick I was concerned I was pregnant, I took a test and it was negative. The 2nd day of not taking the blue pill I got my period, but in the 4 months of taking lo loestrin fe, I only spotted twice.

I was on Lo Loestrin Fe for 3 months and got a period once around the 2nd week of month 2. I finished my last pack 3 weeks ago and still no period. Pregnancy tests are all negative. I don't trust this pill, too many side effects (including weight gain). Once my body goes back to it's regular schedule I'm going back on Loestrin 24Fe

Well it has been over 6 months now and still no period. i would not recommend this pill to anyone. It has my body so messed up. Atleast the other side effects like headaches and mood swings stopped soon after i stopped taking it.

Did you finally start your period after a month? I've been off for about a month and still haven't started.
