"i actually really enjoy this birth control. it&#039;s been the first and only birth control that i&#039;ve tried, and i can&#039;t complain. i didn&#039;t gain weight, my acne didn&#039;t get worse or better, my sex drive is fine and really i didn&#039;t have any of the awful symptoms that typically accompany birth controls. the only thing that did happen to me, was when i first began using lo loestrin, i had a different mood each week for the first month. one week i&#039;d be sad, the next mad, the next happy, so on and so forth until my body got accustomed to what was happening. now it&#039;s like i&#039;m not even on anything!"
