Has anyone else taken Lo Loestrin Fe and experienced menopause like symptoms and absence of periods?

I have been on Lo Loestrin Fe since March. First 3 months my period was crazy, but the last 3 months I haven't had a period at all. I can't be pregnant for my Fallopian tubes have been removed.

Yes, my doctor actually put me on it to stop my periods. Was having breakthrough bleeding on other pills and Lo Loestrin 24 FE stopped that almost immediately.

yes,
my body then adjusted.
I think it was due to the shift in hormones, especially if you were put on this due to your estrogen levels being too high.

I had hot flushes and all, it took about 6 weeks to adjust.
