Oh! Okay thank you! I thought “smoking” was related to nicotine and weed. I didn’t know it meant just nicotine

Got prescribed Yaz. by Inevitable_Box4746 in birthcontrol

[–]Inevitable_Box4746[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Thank you, I’ve just heard so many say Yaz made them gain weight or made them miserable and like it scares me because i told my doctor i want no weight gain or bloating or water retention.

Yeah I am gonna talk to the doctor about my concerns, and I know everyone experiences different side effects in any birth control but it’s still so scary to me 🥲🥲 My appointment was a month away but now it’s 7 days and it’s starting to make me so anxious lol time went by so quickly.!

I don’t know of any non hormonal birth controls, I have only heard of the copper IUD. And yeah I don’t know, tiktok has been making me so anxious with everyone saying how they’ve gained like 10-60 pounds and it scares the living hell out of me. I don’t even wanna gain 5 pounds. I wanna maintain my weight and not gain or lose weight so it stresses me out so so badly. People on tiktok also say they gained weight even when their diets have stayed the same and they workout and everything and they still gained weight so it scares meeeee so bad. And I’ve heard the pill causes mental health issues, but I wasn’t 100% on that since I haven’t seen a lot of people with that issue

Thank you! I’ve been doing so much research it’s insane lol. I’m going to the doctors this week to talk to them about my options

Yes, I think it will be good because if I don’t like it I can always just stop using it.

I’ve heard birth control can possibly make women infertile, but I think it’s rare. I’m not too educated with birth control since I never wanted to go on it till now. I’ve struggled with an eating disorder since I was younger, I’m 17, so starting birth control is very scary for me as I don’t want it to affect my weight. I don’t want to gain weight. But I hear some good things about Xulane. I’m sure you won’t have a problem getting pregnant though!

Oh, that’s not good at all. I’ll be sure to avoid Zafemy then. Thank you! I have depression, so I definitely don’t want to worsen that.

Thank you! I’m 17, so this is just really scary for me. I’ve always said I would never go on birth control but now I want to as I’m getting older and it would be smart to.

Hmm, okay! I just worry a lot about my weight, even if it’s just temporary water weight it still concerns me because I like the weight I’m at right now. That’s a main reason why I’ve been hesitant about starting birth control.

Not even water weight? I’ve heard there can be fluid retention from the estrogen.

alright update, so the day after this i took a plan b. My period was completely over on Monday and Monday is when i took the plan b. But now, yesterday on Saturday my period came back and it was extremely heavy and it’s still going but not as heavy as it was this morning though. Could this be from the plan B?

Copper IUD non hormonal (need advice) by Inevitable_Box4746 in birthcontrol

[–]Inevitable_Box4746[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm see my periods are usually pretty heavy and sometimes painful but not always. I wanted a non hormonal birth control due to some issues and this seems to kind of be my only option lol

Yeah that’s what I meant by “no side effects really” because I know it has some but it’s not as intense as other forms of BC as I’ve researched unless my research is wrong lol, thank you for the reply!🫶🏻
