birth control
"I have been on pretty much every birth control pill out there, all with side effects that were serious enough for me to have to go off of them. I started taking Yasmin and for the first time I had no break through bleeding, no side effects. I was on it for about two years when I decided to go off of it to have a baby. I used a back up method for about 6 months and then tried to get pregnant. One night, one try and I was pregnant. So I think it works well at preventing pregnancy! When the time came to go back on the pill I was concerned I wouldn't be able to get it because of all the stuff I've been hearing. My doctor said that there are increased risks but that the risks are minimal, especially given that I'm under 35 and don't smoke."
