Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone
"The first week or two on lo loestrin fe went really well for me. I had very minimal side effects. However, as my first menstrual cycle on the pill came around, everything seemed to change. It wasn't an awful period, it was actually light with minimal cramping. But during this time I realized my digestion was completely off and I developed acid reflux (which I'd never dealt with before). Constant headaches and brain fog became the norm for me, as well as nauseousness and abdominal pain. I also became way more fatigued, and even developed dry mouth. Before starting this medication I felt completely fine, but four months later I feel worse than ever. Am stopping this medication as soon as this month ends."
