Birth control?

Question

Can any of you who are on the pill now or you was on the pill before tell me what side effects it gave you?

Answer

If it's your first time taking the pill your first month will probably be hell. At least that's how It was for me (6+ years on the pill). I was nauseous for a few hours after taking it and the headaches didn't stop. But after the first pack I was fine.

Answer

I actually have experienced little to no side effects!  Common ones were headache, tender breasts and pimples. The headache I mostly got because of lack of sleep though, and even I got that before going on the pill. Same went for the tenderness and the acne, that's how I knew I was getting my period. I do highly suggest you eat before taking the pill (like maybe an hour or two before) to prevent nausea.  I do that and it helps a lot.

Answer

I'm taking Larin Fe and my boobs grew an entire cup size after the first two weeks, my boobs are always tender, and I'm constantly bloated :( oh but my sex drive is crazy! But I spot more often.  My acne is somewhat starting to clear up. Overall I'm a mess. Lol

Answer

Oh yeah! I also skipped periods for no reason. Which was worrisome.

Answer

I was SUPER nauseous the first few days, but it went away after that. My boobs are huge now 😅 bras that used to be too big are the only ones that fit now! My libido is lower, but I've had crazy baby fever since starting!! Oh the irony

Answer

Been on rigevidon (a combined pill) for a few months. My period is super regular and has started to reduce the pain I have with cramps and my flow isn't as heavy (I used to destroy my sheets every month, it wasn't good). However the first two months I had it I got LOADS of spots on my back and my emotions went haywire (although I did go through a tricky time so I don't know for sure if that had any impact) but both have gone down now. It's made no difference to my acne unfortunately. Birth control won't always affect you badly, so don't be scared of it! I hope you have a stable time with it 😊

Answer

Depends on the pill. I've been on it for a few weeks. Sometimes I get dizzy and light headed ( mostly in the morning along with nausea ) and I have very tender breast which almost grew a whole cup size after starting the pill

Answer

First of all my birth control is Chateal, a combination pill in a 28 day pack. It made my period so regular! Which is fantastic for me because I would go months without period it was so irregular. Also it makes my boobs bigger for a couple weeks, but part of that is they're super tender. Sex drive is still up, if not more so than before. I do get a little more emotional because of the hormones but nothing too bad. Although it didn't really help with acne or hair growth or anything, I LOVE my pill. It makes my life so much easier!💗

Answer

Completely destroyed my libido, like entirely, I have no sex drive now.
Bigger boobs. Grew two cup sizes within a couple weeks and are still constantly slowly getting even bigger.
Definitely helps with periods though, it makes it so much more regular and actually a lot lighter

Answer

Mood swings like crazy & skipped periods (even when I wasn't having sex) and sometimes depressive episodes. 
It went away after a few months.
