Okay, I did a search on here & the web & have been reading about many birth control options & I'm still trying to figure all of this stuff out. Here's the basics, I'm not having sex, I wish I was, but no one's interested. I probably wouldn't even bother with this right now but my periods are getting worse. I'm not just moodier & more tired. My body felt like it had the flu & I was so depressed I was thinking of funeral apparel. I'm not usually the most happy go lucky person, but I'm not seriously depressed either. During the worst of it, I just took some tylenol pm & tried to sleep away as much of the day as possible. I thought I'd read that birth control would regulate your hormones & I was hoping it would help.
I've never been to a gynecologist but when I go I'd like to know what I want to go on. My sister told me that hers basically asked what she wanted & then when she didn't know, the doc just gave her whatever was most promoted at the time. I'd like to to know what I'm getting.
I've been reading about side affects & I really don't want to gain weight. I'd be okay with the headache thing, cause I've always gotten those fairly regularly anyway. Obviously I wouldn't want to take anything that made me feel more upset.
Thanks in advance for any reccommendations.
