Effectiveness

How Microgestin 1/20 Affects PatientsNorethisterone is a type of pill taken by mouth that can be used for birth control or to treat other hormone-related conditions such as menopause or endometriosis. It acts like the hormone progesterone but with a much stronger effect. Norethisterone works by changing the function of the cervix and uterus and blocking hormones released by the pituitary gland that are involved in egg formation. Taking this kind of hormonal birth control may slightly increase the risk of breast cancer, so patients should be aware of this risk and regularly perform self-exams to check for any potential lumps.
How Microgestin 1/20 works in the bodyNorethisterone helps prevent pregnancy by making the cervical mucus thicker and harder for sperm to get through. It also makes the endometrium (uterine lining) less favorable for an egg to attach itself. Norethisterone works by preventing the body from releasing hormones that cause ovulation. In menopausal women, norethisterone is used as part of hormone replacement therapy to prevent endometrial hyperplasia, which can lead to cancer. Finally, norethisterone has a low affinity for other steroid receptors, such as the androgen receptor and glucocorticoid receptor, which may be

I've been using Loestrin for two decades now and it's never failed me in preventing pregnancy. I also haven't had to worry about acne or uncontrolled weight gain, which is great. That said, I am starting to wonder if it's safe to be on the pill for so long. I'm 38 now and I feel like maybe it's time to stop.

I used this BC for a year and it was effective, but I was bloated constantly. Sometimes up to seven pounds of water weight! I started wondering if I had just gained weight, but nope. When I switched to Junel Fe a month ago, the bloating stopped and my weight went back down. Also, when I first started microgestion, I had horrible headaches and was always tired.

Microgestin 1/20 for Birth Control
Microgestin FE increased my depression to the point where I was having suicidal thoughts on a daily basis. After switching to Junel, those thoughts went away completely. So while Microgestin may be effective in preventing pregnancy, it's not worth the mental health risks.
