"i have been taking this pill for a year, after my son was born they prescribed it to me because i was breastfeeding i lost a lot of my pregnancy weight, but within three to four months i gaming 10lbs back maybe even 20lbs. horrible right. i didn&#039;t have a period for 7 months. now i get irregular periods,  light periods. my doctor sent me to get a ultrasound to see what else might have been causing the irregular periods. they found something on both ovaries so my doctor is switching me from jolivette to something else. i&#039;ve had hair loss with this pill, weight gain and dramatic mood swings and out of control hot flashes. it&#039;s horrible i feel like i am having early menopause. oh yea also made milk supply low"
