Birth Control

Many women out there in the world are probably on their birth control journey or haven’t started it quite yet. For those who haven’t started this journey takes years to figure out what kind of birth control works for your body. Because birth control work differently for every single women . It is not a one size fits a. An example of this not one size fits all, your friend Tammy is on the IUD. She is not gaining weight and her period comes only twice a year. You’re also on the IUD, you have gained weight and your period lasted four weeks. It seems like you should go change your birth control method. Which is why you should go see your physician and talked about what other methods are available for you. Don’t ever stop trying to find the right method for you because it is your body and your in control of it.

I know when I started my journey to pick out the right birth control for me. I was taking the combination pill everyday for a year. I experienced shift in my intestines, that pain was unbearable cramp, but I still had a sex drive. With the Nuva ring I put a new one in every four weeks.  I experienced more panic attacks than ever before with the Ring and I also had some vaginal dryness and a decrease in my sex drive. Now that I am on a low dose pill which I have to take every day again.  My experience so far is that my acne is slowly going away and I’m short tempered.  I think.

The video below talks about a woman who has gone on this journey to find the right birth control for her. As usual I have some questions.

What are your thought about male birth control?

Should male birth control be on the market due to its “side effects”? Even though female birth control has these side effect.

Do you wish it was a one sizes fits all birth control?

What kind of side effect did you have while taking birth control that other women did not get?
