Your thoughts on birth control (the pill). I'm looking for the cons.

1 Answer

Answer :

I never had any problems with it. Might make your boobs bigger and you might put on a little weight if you aren’t careful and you may be a little moody for the first few months til your body gets used to it. I thought it was great when I was on it but I kept forgetting it so I got the implant. The implant certainly wont help with your cycle but I thought the pill was great. I know some girls who felt a bit all over the place on it but they did tend to forget the pills more often than me! If you can remember to take it everyday its great. That was really the main downside for me.
