“Can my birth control be making me constipated?”
I'm currently on Lo Loestrin Fe. I started it a couple of months ago, and it's been going well. But I noticed that I've been feeling bloated and constipated, a little bit too often. Could this be connected to my birth control?

Yes, especially with the "Fe" component. That is iron and it will constipate you.
Anything is possible, but not likely.
Yes, because your pills contain iron. Ask your pharmacist to give your pills without iron because the iron makes you constipated and not pills.
