birth control
"I took Loestrin for about 2 months total and it was a horrible experience. The first month was fine. The second month, things started to get worse. I was extremely nauseous and fatigued and didn't feel like myself. I started having several stomach problems after starting the second month (gastritis, irritable bowel). I also developed ovarian cysts which I never had before. I developed a kidney stone as well, but that was a preexisting condition, maybe it was just coincidental? All of this happened within about 6 weeks, which made my life hell. I tried to make myself continue taking Loestrin and couldn't do it. Apparently it just wasn't for me. I know they say you should stick out the first couple of months, but it wasn't worth it to me."
