birth control
"I'm getting ready to finish up my second pack at the end of this week.  I have to say after the first month, I really debated to quit taking it.  I had HORRIBLE side effects.  Constant headaches, muscle aches and spasms and my period was HORRIFIC. Then again this was the first real period I've had in years.  It came on my 2nd week and lasted throughout the rest of my pack and it was HEAVY.  Like 3 boxes of super tampons heavy!  I was breaking out, cramps were TERRIBLE,  irritable and felt like I had no energy BUT I found out I was also extremely deficient in Vitamin D and I needed more potassium.  Now that I'm taking my multi-vitamins, I've found that my side effects have really subsided.  My period is LIGHT and my sex drive has increased."
