"i just wanted to share my experience with this bc.

i had never taken any kind of bc before and wanted to try birth control badly to lighten my periods (they are really heavy and irregular - always late, different durations etc) because of my constant feelings of stress/anxiety. i also wanted something to help with the hormonal acne and breakouts i get around this time.
