Loestrin 1/20 (ethinyl estradiol/ norethindrone) for Birth Control: This is my first time on any birth control, it was wonderful. Too bad it's so expensive even with insurance - that would be the one down side.

Loestrin 1/20 (ethinyl estradiol/ norethindrone) for Birth Control: Loved this! I took three weeks and then started a new pack so I never had a period. Loved that! Since it is so low in estrogen, I was able to do that. Took for 10+ years but got off as I got close to 40 years old. Recommended it to all of my friends and everyone who switched over loved it.

Loestrin 1/20 (ethinyl estradiol/ norethindrone) for Birth Control: At first I loved this birth control. I used to have a heavy period, with loads of cramps. Then I got on this and had no cramps and very little bleeding. The only downfall of this was after a week or two on it my breakouts became very bad. I have really sensitive skin so this could be because of that. But also, I've read other reviews and acne was a side effect of this specific type.
