birth control
"I loved the idea of the convenience of the quarterly shot (I was never good at taking my pills at consistent times). Unfortunately, I ran the gauntlet of most of the side effects. My skin broke out in severe acne, my breasts were constantly sore, my moods were irregular, I was more prone to soreness during intercourse and worst of all I experienced moderate spotting for two ouy of the three months of each shot period. After a year of constant struggle and bleeding I decided to stop the shot and continued bleeding half of each month for four months after the last shot was supposed to have run out. Overall a terrible experience."
