"i am 34 years old and i&#039;ve had my share of birth control. the nuvaring made me have yeast infections, mirena had me bleeding for 8 months. i stayed with it because my doctor told me to hold out. i also tried depo twice when i was a teen. this is my 3rd week on loestrin 24 fe the 1st week i was a little moody. i still am a little. i spotted on the second week but other than that i&#039;m fine. i know with taking any birth control it will affect me some but other than small things that are to be expected i have no other problems. my skin is clear and i feel pretty cool. as i mentioned though this my 3rd week. i will keep you all posted."
