5.1
For Birth Control: I am 5 months postpartum. I’ve been taking Errin for 3 months now for BC & Endometriosis. I feel like it doesn’t cause me mood swings. It does make me feel very nauseous and super dizzy all the time. I keep thinking I’m pregnant and buying tests only for them to say negative. That’s my only complaint. But glad I’m not pregnant. |
5.7
For Birth Control: Getting it in was bad, but the entire MONTH after was the worst most painful experience of my life. Every single day was filled with crippling, knee buckling, tear inducing cramps throughout the days and nights. Once that month was over the cramping went down and the periods themselves slowly went away until I didn't have a period anymore. Within the last four years I remember things like: low libido, pain during sex, EXTREME pain after sex (great way to keep the morale up with your partner), gaining weight although I lead a somewhat active life and work on my feet, but the tipping point for me is the never ending growth of my breasts. I started as a 38B and I'm now up to a 36DD with those bras even beginning to be too small. I'm not the type to show my body off so the big breasts are just adding to my depression and anxiety (which might also be caused by the IUD?) and I'm willing to get off birth control and turn to condoms and ovulation tracking to feel like I own my body again. For Birth Control: Hello, I had this Liletta Birth Control inserted about a week ago, and so far I have been bleeding nonstop with only a few breaks in between. Cramps are very strong here and there, but manageable too. The insertion is painful but with deep breaths, you'll be fine. Intercourse is impossible at times because of the bleeding however, I got a break and tried it and my boyfriend couldn't feel the strings so that's a plus. But I'll keep you updated with this experience. |

For Birth Control: I started taking Errin over one year ago when my doctor recommended for me to get off the combination pill because of migraines my age, and high blood pressure. All I know is that since I’ve been on it I’ve gained 10 to 15 pounds, that I cannot lose. I work out I eat right more than I ever did before I don’t know if the pill is contributing to it. Also have mood swings I normally do not get my period but though last month I got one and it was pretty heavy I do get the breast tenderness so I’m not sure if I want to stay on it or not the weight gain is what’s really bothering me
