"i had to switch over to minastrin because loestrin was discontinued. i&#039;ve been on this pill for a year and a half now and it&#039;s the worst pill out there. i&#039;m 21 and fit but i have developed varicose veins from this pill. ever since i started they have been popping up everywhere on my legs.  also i have no sex drive putting a strain on my relationship. and i have gained over 30 pounds. i&#039;m just dropping this pill all together."
