birth control
"This birth control has been okay for me. I am switching to an IUD next month after being on Mononessa for 1 1/2 years.
Pros: decreased acne, regular period, decreased cramps during period, lighter/slightly shorter period, no weight gain, no pregnancy
Cons: CRAZY mood swings, decreased sex drive, dryness, other medications lower the effectiveness, bad migraines during my period
The migraines during my period were terrible the first 3-4 months, I assume because my body was reacting to the decrease in hormones. The main reason I am switching is the mood swings because Mirena does not have estrogen. I used to be laid back and happy, but my mood has become crazy and very unpredictable. Overall a good birth control, just not the right one for me."
