Birth Control
"I first was using the pill and that made me have my period for 2-3 weeks straight. I don&#039;t know why I didn&#039;t just get the patch in the first place! I love the patch. It&#039;s one less responsibility I have to deal with. I&#039;ve been using it for 3 months now and so far I never had a pregnancy scare. The downfall of this (because of the type of person) I get every symptom. I got rashes, I threw up before, my boobs get so tender when my period comes (but that always happened even before taking the patch), and my mood swings are crazy! But this only happens when I put the patch on after taking the week long break.  After a couple of days I&#039;m perfectly fine. I do recommend the patch though. Just because I get all the symptoms doesn&#039;t mean you will :)"
