Feeling MYSELF?!

Question

Did anybody feel waaaay better after coming off birth control? I don’t feel so glum and self hating. I have energy and just feel great!

Answer

Yes. I couldn’t do birth control because of that. It made me feel gray all the time.

Answer

Same, & getting out of a shitty relationship made me a whole new woman! I use condoms now& I don't think they are as bad as everyone says.

Answer

I was on Seasonique or some type of birth control for 18 years and then I stopped them last April.  I tried to get back on them about a month ago. I  started noticing a sudden negative change a week in. I was depressed, had a complete lack of motivation, no energy, I didn’t want to do anything! I didn’t think it was the BCPs at first because I was on them before for so long. How could it possibly be those? I immediately stopped taking them after reading that at an older age the body doesn’t respond as well. That the decrease in T can cause these symptoms.  I’m assuming the 6 months my body was off of them I normalized. I gradually started to feel like myself again 🤗🤗🤗. This was the beginning of me using this app to monitor my ovulation. No more BCPs. I’m almost 39, in a committed relationship and do not need them. I didn’t realize how adapted my body was before I attempted the restart, that week was the worst week I have had in a long time (other than bad crohns flares)  and I never want to feel that way again (with the change in hormones that resulted)
