birth control
"I have spent nearly 5 years on this birth control, taking it continuously, to help keep my endometriosis under control.  I have been on many different pills over the years, including very high doses of estrogen.  They would work for the first year, then I would get constant breakthrough bleeding.  I've always had issues with acne, but this pill didn't make it any better or worse.  I have occasionally suffered from random cramps, usually due to shifting the time I took my pills during the time changes of the year.  I am vigilant about taking it the same time every day, have never had a pregnancy scare, and was hoping to continue with it indefinitely, however, my insurance provider had other plans.  I am hoping to go back on it again ASAP."
