birth control
"When I first got it, I was ending my period. I ended as normal, but started another period in two weeks. I gained 15 pounds and had terrible cravings and some hair loss. I was a wreck and bled non stop, and when I thought I stopped and had sex, or got ready to I would start again. But in all fairness, all I had to do was go to the doctor and be put on a pill to regulate my periods, after that everything went back to normal again. I lost half the extra weight, and I was tiny before so it's not noticeable with my extra 8 pounds but, i'm at 6 months and am well now. The first 6 though are difficult sometimes if your body is sensitive to change but it is wonderful once you get past it, you balance and you forget that you even have it in."
