birth control
"I was on Loestrin 24 FE for about 7 months between 2011 and 2012. My doctor perscribed it as I have excessive cramping that makes me miss work due to such painful cramps I throw up. I was in the hospital once because I could not stop throwing up and needed an IV as I was so dehydrated. I also could not keep pain medication down so cramps would not go away. I started taking this medication. I noticed my period getting less and less painful and heavy every month. Some months I would not get a period! My doctor said this was normal. Why did I stop taking it? I have no clue. I must have been deranged at the time. I am starting this medication again and WILL NOT quit until I am ready for a baby. It's not birth control, it's CRAMP CONTROL!"
