Birth control question... ?!


Question: Birth control question... .?
I'm about to get on birth control and I'm not really sure which one I want. I would prefer one where I get my period every few months, but It doesn't really matter. I was just wondering if any one had any suggestions for me. Thank you!


I also want one that makes me gain a little bit of weight because the ADD medicine I'm on now makes me lose weight. So if y'all happen to know any kind that could make you gain weight, please let me know! Health Question & Answer


Answers:
It would be best if you didn't take one of those weird birth controls that stop your period. It's also good that you want to GAIN weight instead of lose it!

The pill I take is a generic version of Loestrin 24 Fe, it's called Microgestin and costs me $27 a month without insurance.

I had no bad or weird side effects from it and I've been on it for years. It also makes your period lighter. I'm not sure of a specific birth control that will make you gain weight though.Health Question & Answer

I don't know, if you want to take one that gives you periods rarely, go for it, but when I was on the shot, it stopped my period and I was on that thing for a year and I probably took a pregnancy test every month I was on it because with no period, I became increasingly paranoid I was pregnant. Any one of them could make you gain weight, you will just have to find one that is right for you. Good luck!!Health Question & Answer

Yaz comes with 24 active pills and only 4 placebos. This should make your periods lighter. With Seasonique and Seasonale you get only 4 periods per year.Health Question & Answer

I am on Yasmin and love it! It didn't have any severe moody side effects at all and I have really light short periods. I dunno if I gained weight because I am pretty fit and don't eat much as it is.Health Question & Answer
