birth control
"So far I've been on Lo loestrin for about 2 months. Pros: No mood swings, no weight gain, convenient to use, no pregnancy, no nauseousness, low estrogen. Cons: Period every other week (which sucks but at least it is not a constant period. Hopefully by my fourth month my periods will be back to normal), breast tenderness every day (but not too painful) and occasional headache. I am very satisfied overall and plan to be on this pill for the next 2 years. It's great knowing the risk of a blood clot is so much lower with such a minimul amount of estrogen."
