"i&#039;ve been on lo loestrin fe for a year now and i&#039;ve been relatively happy. i&#039;m 17 and not sexually active, but my doctor prescribed me the pill to help with my pcos. since i wasn&#039;t looking for it for birth control purposes, i was mainly focusing on acne, the duration and pain of my periods, and weight changes. i experienced absolutely no weight change and my periods almost and when i did get my period they were painful, but they were so infrequent so it wasn&#039;t a concern. i noticed also that my acne got worse. fortunately i have not experienced any mood changes, appetite changes, migraines, etc. overall i think as a first time birth control user, it&#039;s been an ok experience but if you&#039;re looking for acne solutions, maybe try something else."
