"I've been on many pills and have had bad experiences with all of them. Mood swings, depression, exhaustion, loss of sex drive, breakouts, etc. Lutera seems like one of the best of the worst, I guess. It made my boobs plumper, which rocks, but I've lost my sex drive pretty much entirely, so what is the point of that? I'm taking it to control ovarian cysts and endometriosis, but I'm going to stop, maybe try another, because I find that I get mad or resentful at my boyfriend when there's nothing out of the ordinary going on, and I don't really care if I see my friends or not. Stuff I used to feel passionate about is like... whatever. I miss me. At least Lutera didn't make me feel like offing myself like Ortho did, but it's still not great."

"I tried this birth control pill when Generess FE stopped their coupon program that allowed me to pay $25/mo. Still pricey compared to the many options available for $10 or less, but I loved Generess FE, so it was totally worth it. Anyway, the price went up to $40/mo. without the coupon, so I decided to try something else. My doc recommended Lutera, and my insurance covered it completely. Within a month of taking the pill, I turned into a complete nightmare to be around. I didn't gain weight or break out as some other reviews noted, but I was always irritable and never wanted to be around anyone. My poor fiancé was probably scared to death of me; everything he did was wrong, and I made sure to let him know. I switched back to Generess after 2 mos."
