birth control
"I have been taking this pill for 9 days. So far I haven't noticed anything too extreme, which is good. I have noticed that I'm feeling bloated more than anything. I have gained a few pounds earlier in my cycle than I usually do, but I'm not above my normal range before I started taking the pill. I'm hoping that I don't continue to gain any weight. I track my diet, so if I gain more weight than the usual monthly water weight, I'll be very surprised. I've noticed moodiness a bit, but nothing I can't control. I get more upset and irritated with smaller things than usual, but I hear that goes away eventually. My skin hasn't broken out at all, really. My breasts feel a tad bit tender and swollen, but nothing painful as of yet."
