What birth control type/brand do you use?
Hi all. So I've been on 4 different types of birth control and I can't seem to find one that works for me. This is more of a vent but I'm not sure if I'm alone here.
First I started off on sprintec and was doing amazing on it.. until 6 months in or so and I started getting migraines that were making me pass out and not feel my hands. Not to mention my cramps got so much worse I was puking. Next I tried the mirena. It was all fun and great but I had cramps 24/7, it hurt to have sex, and my spotting never went away, really. I had it removed after 11 months. After that, my OB forced me to get on another pill because "she didn't want me to ruin my life having a baby this young" and only lasted a week. For some reason it caused me to get really dizzy, sick, and not being able to remember where I was or what I was doing. As soon as I stopped, everything went away. LASTLY I was put on junel Fe 20 and had bleeding basically 24/7, later accommodating chest pain, asthma attacks, aura, and numbness in my hands and feet. After further research, I decided to stop taking it and to no surprise, I felt better.
I'm not sure if I'm just super sensitive or what. I wouldn't mind a kid right now, but I'm worried about after I have one. It seems my options are limited. Thanks.
