Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone
"I think this pill is amazing. I went on it because I wanted something with lower estrogen that still prevented pregnancy, but less hormones (mood swings, breaking out, nausea) was horrid. I was on Sprintec for 3 years.

With Junel Fe, I have maintained weight and have not seen a significant change in my body physiologically. Not pregnant...

The only "con" is that it's so low estrogen that I have not had a period in about a year....which may seem great, but not really knowing if you ever "skip a period" to indiciate if you're pregnant."
