birth control
"I have very mixed feelings about this pill. 



On one hand... 



The pros: 

- No more 7 day, murder scene-like periods. Now they're just 3 or 4 days. 

- Clearer skin

- Less suicidal tendencies

- Higher libido. Mind you, it wasn't low beforehand either. 



However...



The cons: 

- As most of the other commentors have mentioned, weight gain. It's month 9 and I'm pretty sure that I've gained 15-17lbs. 

- More prone to crying

- Cramps. I didn't have those pre-this-BC. Not a fan.

- Increased cravings for weird stuff. Like crushed ice and gaucemole, although that may just be my anemia...

- Higher libido. This is a two way street. Now that I'm in college and attempting to date, I can't afford to be this horny. Luckily, I have self control. 

- Moods"
