Help with birth control please!
To preface: I know this is all personalized and everyone is different. Just looking for advice or people in similar situations.
Hi! I’m 21 almost 22 years old and have been on the combination pill for 5 years now. I’ve had little problems but the last two months developed extreme anxiety and depression along with other strange symptoms everytime I’m on my period despite being very happy and healthy. My gynecologist recommended me to switch to a progestin only BC called Slynd. Im super nervous about switching with reviews I’ve seen about that specific pill, and am wondering if I’m better off getting off the pill as a whole. I don’t want to get into another BC rabbit hole that gives me different bad hormone imbalances later down the line. I really want to prioritize my health but I’m in a committed 5 year relationship and in no position to get pregnant. Any advice on if you have tried slynd or if you think i would be better off without any form of BC. Thanks!
