Since Loestrin 20 has been discontinued I'm yet to find a pill that works for me :(. I've tried rigevidon, microgynon, some others I can't remember, and the implant!! Nothing seems to work the same, I've particularly had problems with my sex drive since going off it and vaginal dryness. Does anyone know a pill like Loestrin 20 in the uk!????

This contraceptive pill was perfect for me - no unwanted side effects, no pain, no periods. Now that it is no longer available, I have been going through a range of different pills and none of them are as good (to put it mildly). In UK there is no alternative with the same ingredients.

I’ve been on Loestrin 20 for heavy periods and horrendous pain for 7 years. I’m devastated it’s been discontinued and won’t be returning. There’s no equivalent pill so now as of next month when my last strip is used I have to go back to that awful life of pain and anxiety that my periods caused. I had no issues taking it. I gained a stone in weight but I was underweight. My breaths did grow which was needed haha. No other issues.
Somewhat negative mood
