Pill

[Lady0912]

i'm on the pill and I'm thinking of stopping it... I heard it has a lot of side effects.. I think it changes my mood a lot even with my boyfriend .. It makes me more sensitive to things... and I also heard it affects your sexual arousal .. But if I stop it I would be risking .. Any suggestions or experience?

Thanks all for your help! .. I'm going to talk to my doctor first .. But you're right better than an unexpected pregnancy i

yeah, I agree with specialmom, I had an alternative contrceptive in mind before coming off of the pill. You need to think about that before you do anything!

Well, I would think about this . . .   what is better----  a bit of a mood swing here and there OR an unplanned pregnancy.  

I would not go off the pill unless you have talked to your doctor and have a alternate plan. There are also different kinds of pills.  

I was on the pill with no side effects.  Talk to your doctor about your options.  good luck

I stopped my pill 7 months ago now after being on it for 6 years. I just felt I should give my body a rest! I didn't have any problems coming off of it, apart from my periods getting messed up whilst my body is sorting it's self out again! I'm now 17 days late and like I said, I've been off of it for 7 months and my body still isn't back to normal! So just be prepared for things to be a bit messed up or a while!!
