"i&#039;ve only started this pill almost two weeks ago. i&#039;ve never been on birth control before now and was looking for reviews on this brand. i&#039;ve had insanely bad cramps on these that i never used to have, and have had my period for two weeks straight just about, the bleeding still heavier than ever. i started heavy bleeding a few cycles ago, and thought the pill would help. i&#039;ve also gained a lot of weight, which is sad, but i can&#039;t say i&#039;m all that upset to find that my breasts are noticeably bigger. i&#039;ve also generally had lighter acne, only breaking out in one place at a time, but since starting lo loestrin fe i seem to be breaking out more."
