I took it and it was also my first BCP. I didnt really have any bad side effects, just very moody and emotional. Emotional and sensitive is my personality anyway but the Loestrin24 FE enhanced it. I've had bad luck with birth control pills in general and am on Yaz right now. I stopped that on my own though. I didnt gain any weight or lose any, no acne and my periods were regular on L24FE. At first, like on all BCP's, it was a little wacky getting it on track but after a few months, it straightened itself out. Were there any specific questions that you had or just wanted general info about it? Good luck
