Loestrin Fe

Loestrin Fe is a low dose birth control pill created specifically for women in their forties. Like other birth control pills it works by suppressing or stopping ovulation. This works to prevent pregnancy. But in perimenopause it's effective in regulating the hormonal highs and lows of ovulation and perimenopause. It decreases and even eliminates many of the bothersome symptoms of perimenopause; hot flashes, sleeping troubles, mood swings and irritability to name a few. It also works to keep the vaginal area moist and receptive thereby preventing loss of sexual drive and pleasure.

Common Uses for Loestrin Fe
