No matter what brand of bcp I take, Ortho-cyclens, Yasmin, Nordette, Lo-Ovral and Lo-Estrin (yes, I think I have tried them all), I get awful side effects. Either I get skin discoloration on my face, or acne, or facial hair, or nausea... I hate it. Same with the depo provera shot. But then, if I go off of the pill, I get horrendous cramps and bloating and all that drama. I feel like I will have to be on the pill forever, and look like a circus freak all my life :( Is there any other solution, or am I doomed either way?
I don't want to be on birth control, but it seems like going off of it isn't an option :(?
Talk with your Dr about getting an IUD. I have the Mirena and I no longer have heavy painful periods. Granted they are not for everyone.
Reply:have you heard the words snip snip? they can reverse this if at a latter time you want to become pregnant
Reply:give priority for what u really need...pill is not always a solution for ur problem...u may try IUCD,natural method.
Reply:damm, girl - ur a fool! Why would you ever compromise your health, and the way you look and feel for that sort of security! Especially when they have condoms available everywhere and planned parenthood clinics where you can use timing method of having natural sex without the consequesnce of pregnancy.
Quit taking that damm pill! Not every persons body is the same and its obvious your body is acting out bigtime and telling you stop taking this ****!!! Listen to your body!
Reply:If birth control methods have given you such reactions, I would try to manage the pain of your periods, and skip the bcp's. The cramps and bloating can be managed by your MD, and you won't experience those side effects that the pill, depo, can sometimes lead to.
You'll need to use a barrier method of birth control, if you are sexually active and do not desire a pregnancy.
Reply:I can't remember what its called, but it's reffered to as the ring, have you tried that? I've heard it works well.
