birth control
"I have been taking this for over 2 years now. Since taking it, I have had less frequent, lighter periods. Yes, there was an adjustment period of about 2-3 months where I was more sensitive/emotional. I don't want anyone to get discouraged by this as most birth controls take about a full year for your body to get used to. HOWEVER, if it is severe and affecting your every day functioning, then yes, by all means try a different birth control. But adjustments and side effects are normal; you are putting hormones into your body. Anyway, this birth control has served it's purpose as my boyfriend and I do not use condoms: we use a combination birth control method of oral contraceptives on my part and "the pull out method" on his part."
