birth control
"I have been on Tri-Cyclen Lo for nearly three months and I am VERY pleased with it. This is the first time I have even taken a birth control pill, and I was very weary to begin the pill after reading many horror stories online. I am very glad that I did not let my fears prevent me from taking the pill.



PROS:

-No weight gain

-No extreme mood swings

-No decrease in sex drive

-Easy to use

-Effective

-Less premenstrual cramps, shorter periods



CONS:

-For the first few days of the pill, I felt extremely nauseous. It was so bad that I considered giving it up, but I am glad I didn't as the nausea went away after the first week. 

-I now experience headaches before my expected period"
