Birth Control Choices
Filed Under Women's Health | 1 Comment
As an adult woman who is sexually active and in a monogamous relationship, there is one question that bugs me. Which birth control method is the best for me? It is a tough question! There are so many different options available now that it is hard just to keep up with them all. I don’t think that I need to worry about any sexually transmitted diseases because I only have one partner. This is only about keeping from getting pregnant.
Condoms would be great, but let’s face the facts: it is just not as pleasurable for the guys. So those get ruled out. Getting my tubes tied (or having him get a vasectomy) is also out because that one is permanent. I’m not saying that I’ll never want kids. I just don’t want kids now.
So that leaves me with only a few options. One of those options is the pill. A similar option is the patch. Both the pill and the patch work the same way. They alter a woman’s normal hormonal cycle. It’s darn near 100% effective too. But is it good to be altering my hormonal cycles? Honestly, I don’t suffer PMS as bad when I’m on the pill, and that’s a good thing. I just always have to wonder though: Is that really good for my body?

I Loved the Patch!
Filed Under Women's Health | 3 Comments
I had been on birth control since I was 17. I started using it because my cycles were so sporadic and birth control evened them out. I have always been a proponent of birth control.
My only problem was the pills. Now, I can take a handful of vitamins a day, no problem, but I always got the gag reflex from the Pill. I have no idea why; probably in my head. Nonetheless, the day my gyno told me about the patch was the happiest day of my life! I loved, loved, loved it! Talk about convenient!
About two years ago, I went off birth control altogether, as I am now trying to get pregnant. Since then, I’ve heard all kinds of bad things about the patch. Is it really true? Is it too high of a dose? WIll it have side effects? I worry because some day I want back on birth control and I’d love it if I could go back to the patch. Does anyone out there know the answer? Seems like you can’t trust everything you read these days.

I have r on the Patch now fà ¼ two weeks and one day. The first day of my time became on one Friday and I began with the Patch on following Sunday became two weeks ago ago. I had *** with my man this evening without a condom. Should I be anxious? Fà ¼ r the case, some of you weià it not, the Patch has the same hormone as the pill and the Nuva ring, but only more (of 60% I have gehört). As also it is like that daà I am sure me that it functions exactly the same as these other methods of the Empfängnisverhà ¼ tung. Another question: Does someone have experience any side effects to observe, from the use of the Patch? If, which they are and like for a long time it has to seize, over diminishes? I have experience mild à belkeit and headache and am to ask, if these symptoms können side effects of the Patch. Thanks!
