I am on Lo Loestrin and of course it is different for everyone but I have not noticed anything bad with this one!
But that's just my experience.
Hope you will find one that is right for you 💕

I hope you find one that works. I started birth control to help manage hormone fluctuations and fibro, not because of sexual activity, and it has been the second most positively impactful change I made to manage my symptoms and pain.

It varies based on the person- you really just have to try a bunch. That said I do really well on Microgynon 30 ( generic I tried in Scotland) and most US generics without fillers. One I tried made me hysterical, I'm not joking. You just have to try another.

@A MyFibroTeam Member The doctor tried me on a few to control the severe cramping and nothing was really working so they put the Marena in me (IUD) and it stopped my periods all together, I still cramp all month long from Fibro but as long as I take the 800mg of ibprophen I manage ok. I'm sorry I didn't completely answer the question but I hope someone else might some more insight to this. You take care, keep positive my friend. God bless

This is a great question, and one I do not have an answer to. Warm hugs dear friend! I do hope that you will find the best one for you.
