Estrostep? Anyone on it?

Has anyone or is anyone on estrostep? Just got put on it..wondering your thoughts?

That sounds like promising news.  I hope she has lived through the worst of it.  Sometimes our bodies can be amazing.  They really do know how to heal themselves sometimes.  It's often just a matter of patience.  Now if I could just remember that for myself!

Sarah chose to just STOP taking everything to see if her body would "kick in". And it did!!! She has had several good months but this past month only had 19 days from start to start. Luckily, they are still seeming normal and only lasting like 5 days. She is thinking about trying the pill again to get them spaced further apart, but wants to give it more time for now.
It looks as if things are going to work out. I have my fingers crossed that she is past that madness she was suffering through.
Thanks for asking about her.

I was on estrostep Fe for several years.. are you having problems???

The last couple of years i was on it i would have breakthrough bleeding midcycle.  That only happened about 3 months though.

Also, BC pill in general made me very dry and uninterested in sex.  When i went off of it (after i was married) SEXUAL AWAKENING!! haha

My teen daughter was on it for several months to regulate her cycle. She had no problems with it other than breakthrough bleeding, and it only worked to regulate her for a few months. If you have no problems and are simply using it as a BC method, then you will probably like it. It also did well to keep her acne away as well, which is another bonus.
Everyone is different and your experience with it may be different which is the case with any medication.
