"i&#039;ve been on lo loestrin fe for 2 years now and i&#039;ve loved it. i haven&#039;t gained any weight, no acne breakouts and i haven&#039;t had a period in 2 years. its been amazing. the only thing is i have some mild mood swings during my week 3 and week 4 of the pill and some breast tenderness. i originally got on the pill for my heavy period and severe pms and i&#039;ve had zero cramps and no bloating. best birth control i&#039;ve ever been on!"
