I've been on Microgestin FE for a year and a half. I've had terrible hives for over a year now and am just now thinking it may be realted to the medication. This is the only medicine I am on and I never had hives in my life until the past year. Did anyone else experience hives with Microgestin?
Did anyone have hives as a side effect?

If you are allergic to Microgestin FE you would probably have developed the hives soon after starting.
You could always try stopping the Microgestin and see if your hives disappear.
