I read that too about not getting your period. I felt really foggy yesterday after taking the pill - did not like that all all!!!

Like I said, it did work for me on that aspect. The only other side effect I have on pills are nausea, I can't stomach most of them. So far Loestrin has been the best for me, but it's only been a month and a half so that could change, but I've been on worse.
Oh, should probably warn you real quick. Loestrin can sometimes cause women to not have their period. It's fairly common with this pill, scared the snot out of me last month. I thought my husband was about to faint when I brought home the pregnancy test. But it's normal on this pill. Some people love it, some hate it.
