birth control
"I have had terrible experiences with different pills in the past (25 lb weight gain in a month, loss of sex drive completely - it hurt to have sex because I couldn't get wet, mood swings) so I decided to not take the pill any more and rely on withdrawal. Needless to say, that was stupid and a huge pregnancy scare later, my boyfriend and I decided it'd be best for me to take something. I was very careful as to which one I would start taking because if I had to deal with those side effects again I would be miserable. After one month, I am quite happy with Lutera. I have had no side effects that have lasted more than a day. My weight is stabilized and I feel great. It can't hurt to try, as everybody will react differently to the pill."
