"i am just putting the pieces together today thanks to all your reviews. i was switched to this from lo loestrin fe 1/20 as a generic. i don&#039;t remember having problems before but for 2 months i&#039;ve had discolored discharge, now breakthrough bleeding and mild cramps. i haven&#039;t had any period or bleeding for years. i was on microgestin and hopefully my doctor will let me go back on that. this medicine though is not the same as lo loestrin fe 1/20. not even close."
