    Exclamation Birth Control Patch

    Okay... after searching for the link for mermaidnz about the birth control patch... I came across this apparently they are saying even the patch isnt safe anymore. So for lil girlies like me who go manic depressive from depo... have a hell of a time with the pill.. migraines etc... the only option is what? condoms? Okay yea I can deal with condoms but I dont like them... I get a really sore dry feeling afterwards 'down there' I can suffer through I dont mind. But this stinks.
    Citing federal death and injury reports, The Associated Press found that about a dozen women, most in their late teens and early 20s, died in 2004 from blood clots believed to be related to the birth-control patch, and dozens more survived strokes and other clot-related problems.
    That alone is enough to scare me

    I was on the patch for a few months after I had Delia. I honestly hated it. Sure, it's convenient and all.. But, the headaches and hair loss were insane and not worth it.

    The Hubby and I use no birth control now, not even condoms. The side-effects are just not worth it for me to take birth control, and we both hate condoms. I've tried the pill, Depo, and the Patch. They all pretty much sucked for me.

    ^^^ That's oe of reasons why we both got fixed, lol.

    That and we had just had a very severe miscarriage, and neither one of us could go through the pain of it again.
