I am 30 years old who is wanting to get on birth control. However I am concerned because I have a history of annorexia and bulimia. I am healthy now, but I am worried that a bc might cause me to relapse. I am also into finess and don't want to lose my figure.
In the past I have taken Ortho-Trycilin-Lo...but I did replase. What would you recommend? I am on 60mg of Prozac, Clonazepam and Zolpidem.
Thanks!

Has anybody taken Loestrin 24FE http://www.loestrin24.com/loestrin/?
I'd recommend Yaz. I was on Ortho-Tri-Cyclen Lo for several years and I would gain water weight for 1-2 weeks every cycle. With Yaz I do not gain this weight except for two days before my period. Of course everyone is different, so take that for what it's worth.
Thanks for your input. I did go to the doctor and she gave me samples of Loestrin 24 FE. So far is hasn't been that bad. I will keep you posted.
