birth control
"I've had really bad experiences with birth control in the past - the pill made me throw up on a daily basis and the shot was just a nightmare. After the crazy mood swings, lethargy, two-month period, social anxiety, and weight gain I experienced with the shot I was nervous about trying birth control again. But so far I've had a good experience with the patch. The first month I didn't have much of an appetite and often felt nauseous, but now that my body has adjusted I only have a few minimal side effects.  I crave junk food more, but that's easily managed with a bit of will-power or chocolate.  My breasts have grown a bit, but after the shot shrunk them that's not a bad thing. Thank goodness I found something that works."
