?
hey loves, i was wondering if there is any other form of birth control related things to take that doesn’t involve me swallowing a pill? ugh my moms making me go on it !
I also wanted to mention that if there’s no reason to be on birth control, do not go on it. It can mess your body up really bad…. I’ve been on four different ones in the past few years because I have a blood disease that makes me severely anemic, and I’ve been through hell and back between Yasmin, the patch (do not use this one), and Seasonale. I finally found one that gives me minimal side effects - the biggest ones being weight gain and no sex drive. It messes with your mood, your sex drive, it can cause anxiety and nausea, give you cravings, make you go to the bathroom more, etc etc. Talk to your doctor and see if there’s really a reason that you have to go on it. I know your mom wants you to go on it - but if she hasn’t used birth control, she doesn’t know what it’s like to be on it. It’s not fun - trust me. Plus some insurances don’t cover it - I know I have to fight with mine all the time. Just make sure you’re ready for the side effects. You might have to use a bunch to find the one that’s best for you. Good luck.
