I’ve been on birth control for about three years now, I’ve always been on the pill but have switched different brands about three times. I’ve heard it’s bad to stay on birth control for long periods of time, and can affect your effectiveness on getting pregnant in the future. I’m young and I do want to have kids later on in life. My question is, do I need to take a month or two of a break from my pill? Or do I keep on taking it? I would love to just keep on taking it, but also don’t want the bad affects. Me and my boyfriend also are sexually active. I am happy with how my pill is working right now, I don’t get a period anymore, and the only downside is that I get a headache every now and then. I thought I come on here and get y’alls advice first.
