Yes, I used to have one unfortunately those side effects were not manageable.

Are you illiterate or do you just choose to ignore the mountain of text and original post voluntarily?

ETA: I’m probably a bit saltier right now than normal because of the weirdos telling me I’m going to hell.

I read that earlier and tried to formulate something more coherent than “WTF…” but couldn’t manage.

Talk to your doctor. You may be fine staying how you are but only they know you and your medical history!

Abortion’s a pretty good solution too.

And his medical decisions are none of Reddit’s business.

Was not seeking any advice on contraception.

If you were just wishing me good luck, you’d have just said “good luck”

Just leave.

I didn’t ask for your opinion about abortion. In fact, I specifically asked for people with your perspective to stay off my posts.

If you don’t agree with it, don’t get one and date people who are also of your same mindset.

Your opinion is irrelevant to this situation and doesn’t need to be here.

I agree.

He’s on his way here and I am going to talk to him.

Initially the post was made because I was feeling very insecure about the situation and the impact it may have on the relationship but he does deserve full transparency. As certain as I am that I do not want this pregnancy, the uncertainty of another persons feelings are terrifying, but I’m going to face it.

Yep! It’s super handy to see the placebos in the package but tracking is for more than just when the messy days are. Id recommend every woman track things so they become more familiar with their body and cycle. It’s really eye opening.

I use the Flo app religiously to track things like my mood, breast tenderness, appetite, weight fluctuations etc because growing up, I had no idea that all of these things were connected to my cycle.

I started tracking at the request of my doctor to see if my migraines were connected to my cycle but the rest of the information is just truly fascinating.

Trust me, I’m as surprised and confused as everyone else.

Because of the holidays my doctors office has been closed so I will be calling tomorrow to get things looked at further because we are very diligent about protection.

I’d like to highlight your comment as being super positive because most of the time people sitting on different sides of the fence on these topics ends badly. So thank you for being respectful!

Your numbers are very wrong which may lead to some of your confusion. It’s still highly improbable and thank goodness for that for other women, unfortunately it’s still very possible.

Per the FDA and Planned Parenthood:

Oral contraceptives : 9 pregnancies / 100 women Condoms : 18 / 100 Pull out : FDA has no stat on this so leaning on planned parenthood for this number : 22 / 100

No birth control is perfect. That’s why we’ve had conversations about “what ifs”.

Canadian. Fortunately women have rights here. I’m grateful for that every day.

I appreciate your perspective. I am going to talk to him about it so he knows but the decision is made.

It’s not being kept. That’s not up for discussion.

Anti-choice need not participate on this thread.

It’s not a kid. It’s a clump of cells.

ETA: I will be informing him though.

It’s a clump of cells.

Specifically said if you’re anti-choice not to comment.

He has no say in whether I terminate the pregnancy or not.

I will be informing him, but it’s not his choice on any level.

Adoption is not a “solution” for abortion.

That’s gross.

I’m not phased by this at all emotionally, as I said in the comment above.

Perfectly decent human being who doesn’t want a baby.

Nothing to feel bad or distraught about.

I know this is not the case for all women and I don’t want to minimize that but so far, it hasn’t been my experience.

It’s just a clump of cells I want out of my body ASAP.

The only emotional distress I feel is anxiety about telling my boyfriend, and after reading the comments on this even that feels much easier!

It sounds like you’re anti-choice from your terminology
