Birth Control
"I have had the absolute worst symptoms on this pill. Before starting birth control, my periods were extremely regular, and I only ever cramped the day before starting my period and the day of. Now, I have about two periods a month, and my breasts are EXTREMELY PAINFUL AND SWOLLEN. I&#039;ve been sticking it out, because I&#039;ve read everywhere that it usually subsides within three months, but I&#039;ve been on the pill for almost five months and my breast tenderness and swelling has not subsided. I can&#039;t even sleep on my stomach anymore. I have also gained weight on this pill (I am ALWAYS hungry), have constant cramps and back pain, and I started getting huge pimples (have never had acne before starting the pill). I am about to change to something else."
