birth control
"Overall this birth control did its job, as I have not gotten pregnant since I had it inserted in August of 2014. However, I DO NOTTTTTT recommend it!! The first 3 months or so were fine, then it went haywire! I have gained 25 pounds. I am always bloated and swollen in my lower abdomen. I cramp horribly now, and I never did before. I get horrible pains to the lower left of my belly button that I never had before. I will bleed heavily for weeks at a time, and spot in between. My face/chest stay broken out. I'm always exhausted and very emotional. I have been miserable!!! The only reason I haven't gotten it out sooner is because I lost my insurance and it is expensive to pay out of pocket to have it removed. Getting it removed today, actually!"
