Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been taking Lo loestrin since July 2016 since then I have slowly developed joint pain, swelling of the legs and ankles, fatigue, mood swings, Loss of intimacy, and recently overactive gallbladder disease. Could these all the side effects from these pills?
I think the joint pain and joint swelling doesn't come from Loestrin usage. Meanwhile, the mood swings and low see drive may be caused by it. You should get checked for rheumatoid arthritis doing anti-DNA antibodies and ERS.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
