"i&#039;ve been on lo loestrin for almost 4 years and i haven&#039;t gotten my period at all while on it. i still pms but never got my period. at first i loved not having it because of my normally heavy period. but it started to concern me and i felt uncomfortable not getting my period for so long. i also gained weight in my stomach area. i stopped taking it 2 days ago. i&#039;m not sexually active so i can&#039;t comment on that but definitely wouldn&#039;t recommend."
