"i spent 2 years on this medication. 2 years of my life i&#039;ll never get back. i thought the crippling exhaustion, anger, anxiety and depression were from being a working mom of a young child. for 2 years i had no libido, no desire to do anything other than sit on my couch. cooking, cleaning, and simple things like playing with my child were nearly impossible. after a day at work i was too mentally fatigued to do anything.

less than a month back on loestrin and it&#039;s like a light switch has been flipped. i&#039;d rather bleed monthly and be happy."
