Femcon Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone) for Endometriosis: This medication worked really well for a while to control breakthrough bleeding and regulate my periods. I recently started to bleed irregularly and experience more serious cramping. I just found out that my endometriosis has advanced and I have been upgraded to Nortrel 1/35. I'll try that for a while to see if that will help me while I am awaiting hysterectomy.

Femcon Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone) for Birth Control: I started taking Femcon Fe when I was 18 and took it for 4 years. Within the first year, I gained 20 lbs that I could never lose. My weight would fluctuate by 10 pounds every month and around the time of my period I would have horrible bloating. It did make my periods very regular, short, and light and lessened the severity of my cramps. It also cleared up my skin. My doctor has just switched me to a birth control pill with a lower dose of estrogen after having a baby, to see if the weight gain issues go away.

Femcon Fe (ethinyl estradiol/norethindrone) for Birth Control: In the beginning I had severe headaches and spotting. Now I take the pill in the evenings and have not experienced any side effects.
