"i have been on 5 birth control pills in the past 6 years, and loestrin 24 is by far the best. i was taking loestrin, but a different dosage and like it. i switched to yaz because it was cheaper. i already didn&#039;t like yaz, and that&#039;s when my insurance company switched me to the generic ocella...horrible life decision.  i had horrible mood swings and pretty much had no control over my anger.  my boyfriend and i both recognized that there was a major problem and went back to my doctor who was able to put me back on loestrin, but this time the loestrin 24.  it has been a god send.  i had spotting and bleeding for about 3 weeks and now, barely anything.  no complaints and i&#039;m sure my boyfriend (now fiance) appreciates it too."
