Low Sex Drive With Loestrin 24 Posted: 03-21-07 15:34pm
I have been taking Loestrin for 3 months
now and have had breakthrough bleeding and
feel like I have a lot lower sex drive
since I have started taking it. Has
anyone else had the same effects with this
pill as I have?

A lowered sex drive can be a side effect
of hormonal birth control. You may want to
speak to your doctor about your concerns
so that the two of you can pick a
different pill or possibly a different
method altogether that you feel more
comfortable with. Sorry that I couldn't be
of more help.

I had the breakthrough bleeding with
Loestrin too. I went back to my doctor
and she changed my pill. She said it was
probably just too low of a dose for me;
could be the same situation for you.
