Hey ladies, I need some advice!!! 💜 I had my daughter in May 2014, following her birth I tried a few different birth control methods. In September 2014, I got the Mirena and from then until February 2016 I was sicker than a dog. I experienced symptoms such as nausea, vomiting daily (something's multiple times daily), chronic migraines, stomach pain (not cramping but pain actually in my stomach area, and very painful cramps in my lower abdomen and back. After visiting my OB on multiple occasions they did I many ultrasounds and determined there was no way it was caused by my Mirena even thought I was adamant that it was. I then started seeing a gastroenterologist because my OB suggested it and it was there where they did an endoscopy and they told me I needed to switch OB's. Once I switched to a new OB she looked at me once and said THAT is DEFINITELY what is making you this sick. So after being deathly ill for over a year I finally had someone who believed me. She said LETS TAKE IT OUT RIGHT NOW and those were the most peaceful words I had ever heard. Guess what.... from a few days after she removed it I had absolutely no more issues! In February 2016, as a replacement method, we both agreed on the birth control patch however after using it for about 6 months (give or take) and switching it to different approved areas on my body, I didn't like the irritation it caused my skin so I stopped using them and my husband and I started just using condoms. So, I have been birth control free for around a years now and plan on calling the OB tomorrow to schedule a Pap smear and birth control talk! I have been thinking about getting THE PILL. The point of my post is to ask you mamas what birth control pills you have tried and which kind you liked or didn't like. Please keep this post strictly about birth control pills or other things I have mentioned previously above. THANK YOU!
