A member asked:
Will i experience shorter and lighter periods with levlen (ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) 28?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Over time, most ocps will cause lighter, less painful, more regular cycles. If taken correctly, they also help with acne, mood disorders, and anemia. Make sure you don't have risk factors such as cigarette smoking, clotting disorders, or thrombotic risks, & be compulsive about taking them daily for best results. Ps - its good birth control too!
