Idk symptoms and conditions

I am an active teenager and i got this birth control because i get really bad cramps and a steady boyfriend. I got my period as normal the first month then skipped four months without getting my period. i thought i was pregnant because my stomach feels totally weird almost like a little bulge where my bladder is located. Has anyone else's stomach felt weird, or different then normal? it's not that i look fatter just different. i took a pregnancy test and was not pregnant and i ended up up getting my period the 6th month of being on this. i am just wondering if this is normal?

Oh boy. So it started with this sentence in my obgyn's office "is there anything to help the EXTREME cramps i get every month?" to which he replied "oh yes there is the mirena" and it went on to ask him what it does. oh it sounded so wonderful! but....FAIL! my daughter is nine months old now so i guess i have had it for 8 months now. got it in right after my check up. I have lets see....i wrote these all down. Sex Drive..GONE. increased weight gain which is that i weigh more now then when i was pregnant and have changed everything and i keep GAINING more weight..cramps regularly there not bad but they are everyday. no energy i cant even do the dishes without getting tired. heartburn everyday, if my stomachs empty i have heartburn so it doesn't help me trying to lose weight! I have become more moody and when i say more i mean i have clinical bipolar disorder and it is HORRIBLE with my anger and depression and my always crying. I get pain in my joints and mostly my right leg goes numb (idk if thats mirena but it didn't happen till AFTER mirena happened). I have always had AMAZING skin...now i get acne all the time its unbelievable. i get dizzy and sometimes i cant even hold my daughter! and the migraines are the worst of all...no the worst is the no sex drive! All this and i was never told the cons in my doctors office! Isn't that against some code? Here is the topper on the cake. two weeks after i had mirena inserted my obgyn was asked to leave the practice and they refused to tell me why. Shady thats what that is.

I received my iud im October of 2008 it was a little painful when inserted but very quick and simple. I had a period for almost 2 months straight then it calmed way down and i had it every other month for 8-9 days but so light that i could wear a panty liner. i haven't had any children so my side effects may be different from some of yalls. I haven't noticed any hair loss but i have always lost lots of hair when in the shower. I have had major severe cramping the whole time, even now. I haven't noticed and mood swings or sleep issues or sex issues but i am also very young so. I have had at least 5 bacterial infections if not more, i believe its from the iud. That is my only real complaint it smells and is always pouring out of me. I haven't had a period for 3-4 months now except for a light spotting for a single day, which i love! i have felt it during sex maybe 3 times not bad though. i have noticed hot flashes but never thought of it as being the iud. idk though ive been pretty happy with it...

ive been on nuvaring for 2 days my cat is so itchy and red i don't know what to do ....do i stop now are give it a month idk but if the itching dose not stop tonight its gone

I hate this pill! I have been on it for a month. I been getting bad back and hip pain and I am always tired, I can sleep for 12 hours just like last night and be up for 3 hours and want to go right back to sleep, I noticed my hair has been coming out when I get out of the shower and also when i brush it (more then usual), I'm gaining weight and that's bad for me cause I have weight issues and I can't stop eating! All I want to do is eat. As for my sex drive and moodiness its better then when I was taking ortho tri cyclen, with ortho tri cyclen when I was in the mood it would go away instantly, my moodiness was crazy I would break up with my boyfriend over the tinest things. I think I'm done with taking birth control, I didn't like either way I felt with either one.

Also I spotted for 6 days not even heavy, idk if I should take a pregnancy test or not. I called pph and they said it could be because I don't take my pills at the same time but they don't know. sometimes I miss one pill and ill take it the next day wit that day pill but I never take it at the same time sometimes I take it an hour or two later. Should I take a pregnancy test?!

Acid reflux,heart burn - Terrible heart burn. Definitely do NOT lay down for at least an hour after taking doxy. It felt like the 100mg capsule was stuck in my throat and trying to come back up. The painful burning just wouldn't stop. I honestly thought the capsule got stuck while I was sleeping and burned a hole in my throat. With such horribly painful and easily preventable side effects, why didn't anyone tell me?

Ever since starting this pill i wake up every morning with something hurting me! its not like i sleep in a weird position or anything! like the other day i woke up and had back pain to the point where i dreaded bending down!!! and now it goes into my right side and my upper part of my leg by my butt.. idk what to do.. and all i do is sleep no matter how much i sleep during the night i sleep all day and its driving me crazy because i never get anything done.. also has anyone else get there period longer? i do and i absolutely hate it.. plz respond what should i do!

hi guys,

finding your posts so helpful.
i've been on yasmin for nearly 5 years and its only just dawned on me recently that my:
-anxiety/mood swings/erratic behaviour
-body hair growth
-weight gain
-increase in discharge etcetc
could actually be from the pill!!

i was always so bubbly and strong but i seem to cry now at silly things and i just don't feel myself. i initially went on the pill when i was 17 because my periods were so bad but i'm not sure what to do now... change pill or come off pills altogether?!

i'd love some feedback if any of you have been in a similar position, thanks so much
