Hi, I understand your problem. It is unfortunate that loestrin Fe has been discontinued so you have to switch to another pill. The new pill Junel contains the same drugs that were in loestrin except the Fe part which is simple iron. This iron is used only to act as a supplement to increase our hemoglobin and is not an actual birth control ingredient. So please stop thinking that Junel and loestrin are different. The spotting is not because of junel. It is happening because the birth control pills are designed in such a fashion that active drugs are delivered for 21 days [if the pack contains 30 pills or 28 pills] and the rest of the days only simple vitamins or iron is given. In a 21 days pack, all pills are active and a women is supposed to stop for 7 days before starting the new pack. Every women is supposed to experience menses during the days of the inactive pills or when she is off pills. You have taken the pills continuously. So you have not allowed the normal menstrual blood accumulated in the uterus to come out. So it is coming out in the form of spotting which is not a good sign. The breast enlargement with the pills is not much and usually cyclical that is happens in few days of the cycle. I suggest that you must complete the current pack and than if it is a 21 days pack stop for 7 days. Let the menses come. Continue taking the pack as prescribed only and not in a continuous fashion. If you are worried about migraine, you can try using depot shots, but they tend to cause spotting and irregular bleeding. Other methods are a device system called mirena that is inserted inside the uterus for 5 years. Hope this was helpful. Thanks for using HCM. Have a good day.
