so i am thinking of going off my birth control for the first time since 1987.
i have been on it ever since i was 17... that's a pretty long time. i don't know if it's a good idea to shake my body up like that... but for some reason - i sort of want to "detox" from everything...
** disclaimer: sorry to any new folks, i don't usually talk about the goings on "down there" come back soon and often, don't be afraid **
i think the main thing that i love about the Pill [besides the "lack of pregnancy" thing that it's got going for it] is the control... huh... i guess that's why they call it birth "control"... of knowing when the old "friend" will be showing up - i have scheduled her from monday thru wednesday every 28 days... i know when she's due. i'd know something's wrong if she didn't show up on a monday mid-morning with a tingle in my right thigh - seriously, i know exactly when i get it... strange.
but to give up that control?
has anyone been on the pill for a long time and gone off of it?
(i will not be changing my header if i go off of these things, just to let you know)
what should i expect? after i go off (after my last week) will - eh, sorry, boys - i have cramps and my • for an extended time??!
i may just go off for a few months...just to 'kick my body up a notch'
although i have heard the claims that it reduces the chance of getting breast cancer if you are ON the pill...
tell me tell me tell me!!! is there a doctah/nurse in the house!?!
** i may just be cheap & lazy right now... we changed our medical plan at work and now i have to get my meds mailed to me - and if i don't it's an astronomical difference in money**
**** yeah... i probably will stick with taking them... too chicken to go off of 'em... ****
