"i was prescribed lo loestrin fe for my debilitating cramps and anemia. i was on another hormone treatment a few years back but stopped taking it due to low finances. on a regular check-up, my doctor suggested trying birth control pills again even though it is not pregnancy prevention i am seeking. i agreed since i am unmarried and do not intend on having children in the next few years.

now i am on my third month of using lo loestrin and i am liking it so far. my cramps have slowly become minimal, my bleeding is no longer insanely heavy, my last period lasted 4 days instead of 7, and best of all i do not feel severely ill due to my anemia."
