"only thing i can say about the loestrin 24 fe is awesome.  i have been on these pills for 6yrs now and in the beginning my period lasted 2 to 3 days and as time went on it decreased even more and went to 24hrs and my period was over. later on it changed again and i came on and was off in 12hrs.  today, i haven&#039;t had a period at all i know in yrs. i love these pills but the only downfall is even though i don&#039;t come on i still have the mood swings, irritating moments, feeling strange, headaches etc. but at the time when my period would have been ending that&#039;s when everything goes away. i did used to worry in the beginning when i completely stopped having a period but now i know its just the way these pills are with my body."
