going off of the pill

Ka
This was officially my last month on the (combined) pill! After 10 months on hbc I'll finally get my normal cycles back. I'm honestly so excited and happy about this! I've been feeling miserable putting all those hormones in my body that I finally decided to bring the constant nausea, mood swings and weight gain to an end. Thankfully my partner is understanding and supportive! Since we're both still teenagers and not wanting a baby anytime soon, we have already discussed other HORMONE FREE alternatives! 
If you don't feel 100% happy with your birth control talk to your doctor about it or a woman in your life that you feel comfortable discussing this topic with. Together you can list alternatives or different forms of birth control, and get educated on them! It is so important to find the right one that fits your body, lifestyle and mindset. There's tons of different kinds out there, so don't be shy to try them (after your gynecologist has approved, of course!). 
I'm more than happy with my decision, and can't wait for things to return to their natural cycle (literally 😁)
