birth control
"After being reluctant for a long time, I finally decided to get on birth control. I am almost done with my 5th pill pack now. Overall I feel like I am actually net calmer throughout the cycle, as I used to get very moody right before my period and now that doesn't happen anymore. My periods went from 7 to 4 days and are very light. Sex drive has remained the same, possibly even increased slightly. No weight gain. Only possible effect could be a tiny bit of acne, but more like an extra tiny pimple rather than a whole breakout. I take the pill at night, which I heard helps minimize side effects. I would definitely recommend."
