    I take Loestrin 24 and it is the first one tha I actually like.

    First i was on ortho tri cyclin lo- HORRIBLE.

    then i was one Yaz- I was a psycho wreck. (A few friends had the same negative effects from Yasmin)

    Then I was taking loestrin 34/15 or whatever and I was still very moody with heavy periods

    finally my doctor tried loestrin 24 and it is perfect. Light period and no moodiness.

    it seriously depends on each individual. I would recommend Loestrin 24 to start with because i can tell you that is the ONLY one that I feel like myself while taking and that is seriously the most important thing,

    Source(s): Been taking birth control for about 6 years
