"I have tried one other type of birth control and it didn't work and I have been on Loestrin for almost 2 months and I have mixed feelings on it. I do get spotting and minor cramps throughout the entire month. I got very sick when I started to take it so I lost a bit of weight. But it has made me very tired and very hungry although I haven't actually gained any weight. I am a teen that has had VERY bad cramps and VERY heavy bleeding and while it helps with the bleeding, the cramps aren't much better. It is most definitely a pill that you have to take same time everyday. No waiting 10-20 minutes because you will have spotting. "
