Anyway, I came off, had 1 period and got pregnant. I can't take the pill anymore now either as it gives me migraines and messes up my body.Your mother doesn’t have a clue what she’s talking about and her absolute ignorance is shameful. I hope you are ok after going through thatAges ago i was on the pill, but my mom made me come off as she kept moaning about how its not normal to have a period "& all that bloods gotta go somewhere"
Well, My son is nearly 14 and obviously her golden child!Your mother doesn’t have a clue what she’s talking about and her absolute ignorance is shameful. I hope you are ok after going through that
She is very ignorant though - about a lot of things and you can't tell her nothing.Sorry you had to go through that! In a similar but different vein, my mum still thinks EC is abortionAges ago i was on the pill, but my mom made me come off as she kept moaning about how its not normal to have a period "& all that bloods gotta go somewhere"
honestly it makes me so sad to know for some young women the only person tells them about contraception is their mum who doesn’t even know the right information!!can I ask the name of the pill you are on please? It sounds like the answer to my prayers
I've just come off the implant after being on the pill/coil/something! back to back for 16 years and it's been really nice. Definitely have noticed an improvement in my skin and libido, and my weight has been more stable (I'm not currently trying to lose weight but I find I don't gain as badly after a holiday or a few days not behaving myself
).I came off the pill a couple of weeks ago and I've had a really positive experience. As soon as I came off it I started to take DIM and milk thistle supplements so help balance my hormones- so far haven't had any crazy mood swings or breakouts and I really think it's from taking them. Have also had 2 cycles so I was delighted it returned to normal straightaway. Have also found that my period is a lot shorter than my withdrawal bleed would have been on the pill!
All you can do is try and see what happens. Give your body a good few months to adjust, and take it from there.
It's now been six weeks since I came off. First two weeks I felt fine, last few weeks I've been really dizzy and nauseous, threw up once. I feel better this week, but I still haven't had a period which i know can be normal but it's making me really anxious. Give your body time to adjust, I did feel really weird for a bit.
