Birth Control
"I took this from age 16 to 27, when I got married. Now I&#039;m 36, and my husband and I have tried for 10 years and I can&#039;t get pregnant. My periods have been torture since I quit taking it. It is nothing unusual for me hurt so bad within the first 48 hours of starting my period, I wind up passing out on my cold tile floor naked in a puddle of sweat. I&#039;ve spent a fortune trying to get pregnant, or at least find some reason behind the crippling effects of my period, which comes every 18 to 21 days. Maybe ortho isn&#039;t to blame, but I can&#039;t help but wonder if my inability to have a child is related in some way."
