birth control
"This is my 4th month on Lo loestrin fe. I have to say, the first 2-3 months I wasn't a huge fan. I spotted for the first week or two, I was breaking out a little more than normal (usually I get 1-2 pimples on my chin right before my period) but this made me break out about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks into my pack:( and would only "clear" up for about a week before it started again. I had slight cramping, felt a little crazy and periods lasting about 3-4 days seeming no different than normal. I almost lost hope! BUT!!! I stuck it out like most doctors recommend. Month 4= no period, no mood swings, clear face all month until my sugar pills (slight breakout only), no weight gain (though I do workout everyday). Give it a shot!!"
