abnormal uterine bleeding
"I am 18 years old and had severe bleeding ever since I first got my period. I started off with a normal flow that lasted one week which eventually got heavy to the point wear I wore purple maxi overnight pads during the day. My periods would last 7 months and eventually I became anemic. After visiting many doctors which only suggested birth control (the option we tried to avoid) The gynecologist I visited perscribed Lo Loestrin Fe to stop my periods and some iron pills and vitamin D for my anemia. I didn't suffer with cramps, bloating, nausea and such during my long periods. After starting Lo Loestrin Fe It stopped completely and I have had no bad experiences with acne or weight gain, just bleeding on my 3rd week. Its been a great two months!"
