menstrual disorders
"I have been on Loestrin 24 for a little over a month and I'm fairly happy with it. I just had my first period after switching from YAZ and am much happier with it. I have always had heavy periods with bad cramps so I got started on YAZ to help. When it didn't (it actually got worse), my Doctor switched me to Loestrin 24 and my period was really light and I had almost no cramps at all. The only complaint I have is on YAZ I gained 7-10 lbs and I was hoping after switching to another birth control I would lose those extra pounds but so far it hasn't happened."
