My boyfriend and I have been together for about 2 years and we’ve almost always relied on the pull out method. Luckily we’ve made it this far with no surprises, just finished up my degree and about to start a new job. But all of these changes and successes just makes me want to be smarter about my birth control. I have been so reluctant to talk to my doctor about birth control because of all the horror stories from people about the side effects they experienced...from weight gain, to periods that last for months, sickness, vaginal odor....the list goes on. Do any of you guys have a birth control option you trust and would recommend?
