"i have been using loestrin fe 1.5/30 since sept 2012.  i&#039;ve been on various other bc pills since 1999 and this is hands down the best i&#039;ve experienced.  i have zero side effects.  my cycle is perfectly 28 days (to the hour), my period is short (2 days) and light (i use light absorbency tampons or a pantyliner).  i cannot recall the last time i experienced cramps, and i only ever have acne in places i touch my face. i love this pill."
