birth control
"I LOVE the patch. I used to use  BCP but the thought of swallowing a pill everyday yearly made me feel literally nauseous when I took it...to the point I stopped and used condoms only. Needless to say, I have a beautiful 1.5yr old :-) after him I wanted to wait for another. Mind you before having him my periods were "normal." After having him, my period was EXTREMELY heavy lasting 5 to 7 days. I was going through 3 and 4 super pads WITH super tampons. I used with it each day until the last day. It was horrible! That lasted for a year because I breastfed. I got on the patch and I never thought I'd say my period is pleasant but I call it "cute and petite" no cramps. This is my 3rd of 4th month I love it"
