Difference between Loestrin 1/20, loestrin fe, and loestrin 24?


I've been researching loestrin and have see many different uses of the name. Are they adjectives the same thing in recent times named differently, or does the 1/20, fe, and 24 all stand for something approaching doses?

Answers:    I'm on Loestrin 24FE. The FE stands for iron. The "inactive" pills are green and instead of just containing sugar, they have an iron supplement. The 24 channel there are 24 active days of pills. Most other birth control solely have 21. Those three extra days stair-step down your hormone level. It help me stop having hormonal migraines.

I'm not sure what 1/20 is but its probably a slightly different formulation.
