birth control
"The first month I was on it, it went great. No side effects, 1-2 pounds weight gain (I watched my diet to the T so I knew the extra weight was from the pill) But it did not bother me too much. The second month was hell! I gained an extra 10 pounds within week one and mid of week three, I call my gyno and had to have my pill changed because I could not accept the 10 pound weight gain. She has switched me to Microgestin Fe 1/20 (generic of Loestrin 24), so we will see how that works out. I am not starting this new pill until I lose the weight I have gained from Tri-Sprintec. Before being on Tri-Sprintec I was on Yaz and that had not worked well for me either, major bloating!"
