Ethinyl estradiol / levonorgestrel
"I've been on lutera for about 5 months now. I am a very active 20 year old college student 5'4 and 130 pounds when I started the pill. At first it really helped with my endometriosis (reason for taking), no mood swings and I felt great! Now within the past 3 months I've noticed my mood swings are getting out of control and I don't even want to go near a scale because I know I've gained at least 30 pounds.. Yes that much weight.  I'm a marathon runner and there should be no reason for this weight gain. My side effects have been a late onset. I am going off of the pill to try and loose weight and reset my body before I try anything else."
