"i&#039;ve been on lo loestrin for 4 months.  this pill is one of the best i&#039;ve taken so far.  no periods or crazy mood swings.  sex drive is normal.  only downside is that i have gained some weight and it&#039;s been hard to lose it while being on this pill.  second downside it&#039;s expensive, and my insurance doesn&#039;t cover it so its cost me 75$ per month.  overall, good experience on this pill."
