Birth control?

Question

Okay, so I used to take birth control, but I noticed it was making me break out and get fatter. I don't want to take birth control anymore. What are my options? I was born with a very irregular period so I only get it twice a year. I was hoping birth control would help regulate but it didn't. Help!

Answer

During the first few months on birth control, you do have unwanted side effects. They do happen and I suggest waiting out a few months because although your skin might look awful now, after your body gets used to it it'll all go away. That's how it is for me. Gaining weight isn't caused by your pill, it just increases appetite so I suggest watching what you eat.

Answer

How long had you been taking it?
Some brands cause that stuff, and others don't. Or it might have been your dosage of pill that was causing those symptoms. BCP is a game of figuring out which one works best for you. Talk to your doctor to figure out what type of birth control would be best for you if you choose not to go on the pill again
