birth control
"I was on Loestrin for about a year and was always concerned about not having a period.  My husband and I tried just using condoms for a while, but after a few months I decided I needed to go back on some form of oral birth control.  My doctor suggested TriNessa, which has a higher dose of hormones, so I will have my period each month.  After only a month of that, I have noticed extreme anxiety and mood swings, random spotting, loss of libido, and nausea.  I know it takes a while to get into my system, but I've already gained 10 pounds. Next month, I'll be switching back to Loestrin. I had no side effects and no weight gain when taking it, other than not having a period. After being assured by my doctor it is safe and normal. I'll go back to Loestrin."
