Birth Control
"I started this medication two months ago and I start my third pack tomorrow. This is the first hormonal birth control method I have used and I am very satisfied. Before I started it, I had terrible PMS. I was ready to go on antidepressants if birth control did not help; I felt that bad. As soon as the second half of my cycle began, (for me, around day 16) I was very depressed until my period, to the point of missing work, not showering, not even getting out of bed. Also had outbursts of anger, extreme fatigue, skin got oilier, and had headaches throughout the month. All that went away when I started this pill. My breasts feel sore and got bigger, but all other minor side effects went away after the first two weeks."
