Why is birth control always pushed on people who have problems ..I have hormone issues and my doctor is pushing me taking birth control when I absolutely hate how i feel on it and she knows this. It gives me horrible side effects. Weight gain, irritability, sore boobs like I don’t want to deal with that. I know it can probably help but to me it just masks the problem...What about helping people figure out how to balance hormones naturally with foods and healthful living. I’m not saying birth control is bad because it isn’t it’s just pushed way too often on people.
