Choosing New Birth Control

I’m on Beyaz, but I don’t want to be on it anymore so I was doing research.

Has anyone tried seasonale, Seasonique, or Lybrel? Do you recommend any of these?

Why do all these sound like hip hop artists names that perform in skimpy clothes on stage? 🤔

Used to gave them postinor-2 when the condom broke

Do I even want to know what that is?

Sounds like shampoo to me haha! Sorry i can't help, different part of the world i'm guessing by the names. I'm on Marvelon-Sounds like the school geek right enough!

I use Delyla.. well actually Falmina which is the generic. So why are you wanting off the one youre on?

Mostly because I’m worried that I might have blood clots because I’ve been having Charlie horse feelings in my legs a lot for no reason. I don’t exercise and it’s been on and off for months. I read that my bc has a 75% chance of developing them after prolonged use. So I have a doctors appointment coming up to get that checked out. Also was interested in the 4 periods a year or 1. Sounds nice!!

I used to take Jencycla, a mini pill. Worked great for me, no crazy side effects except food cravings within a 2-3 hour window of taking it. I would ignore my urges and be completely fine after that.

My body does well to low doses of hormones.

Never heard of that one! I’ll look into it

Ahh that doesn’t sound good. You could also be low on potassium. Causes cramps in the legs. I used to get them badly when I was pregnant 😉

I was on 2 mini pills, Lo Lestrin and some European one called Leuva, that worked until it didn’t any longer. It became too weak and I was bleeding through it. I was on bc for breast feeding mothers (I am not a mother lol) because regular bc has a tendency to give me ovarian cysts and blood clot symptoms.

I’ve had surgery and cysts grow on my ovaries so much that I have to be careful which pill to use. I’ve been through so many.

I recently started seasonique and it’s good for me so far. It’s the first reg bc pill that hasn’t given me blood clot symptoms in my right leg. I have no symptoms, which is what I’ve been hoping for all along 🙏🏻

Hmm that’s what worries me. I have blood cot symptoms and I’m concerned. My appointment is next week. Did you definitely have them? Did you have any tests done?
