"before i was on lutera- i was on lo loestin fe (which was awful!- i would bleed literally two weeks out of the month, had no sex drive and gained 10 lbs). after switching to lutera, which i have been on for a month now, my mood swings have been consistent (even though i cried when a dog commercial came on), i have actually lost weight, there is no break through bleeding, and my sex drive is back to normal, and this is covered a 100% by my insurance. also, no bad side effects such as acne, stomach pain, or severe discomfort in any form. the only thing is my boobs swell up a little bit, but no complaints there.  this is such a great pill! i would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to start a new bc or wanting to switch."
