"the first pill i tried had me in so much pain all throughout my body that my doctor switched me to this one. at first i thought it was great because i wasn&#039;t in pain, i never got sick, etc. but after only two months of taking it, i have zero sex drive. i literally cannot get turned on and i feel like a corpse. what&#039;s the point of taking birth control if i can&#039;t even have or enjoy sex? my periods also last way longer than normal, like a week and a half."
