birth control
"When I read these reviews, I was really nervous about starting this. I didn't experience any extreme emotional problems. At first everything was fine. I had irregular periods (happening when on the active pills, sometimes 2 weeks apart), but that's expected in the early months. But after a few months, I noticed that I was getting itchy hives on my face. Didn't associate it with this medicine until I noticed it was only happening when I had my period. Within a few hours after taking it, I'd get hives on my face and they'd stay all day but flare up even more the next day after taking the pill again. Horribly embarrassing. I had such clear skin and having red itchy bumps was just so upsetting. My dr took me off of it."
