birth control
"I've recently started the patch due to health reasons - not contraception (although it is a win win). I haven't been on bc in over 10 years, so I have nothing really to compare it to. However, I will say this: I've found that the Xulane patch makes me a bit nauseous at times, but those phases never last more than 10 mins, although those 10 minutes can be very intense. It gets to the point where I'm salivating, extremely warm, and feel as if I am about to hurl (but I never do). That typically happens twice a day. I've also found that my usual problems with constipation have diminished since on the patch (I no longer think that is coincidence). My breasts are also more full (plus for me, lol) but also more sensitive; minor weight gain as well"
