Premed student symptoms and conditions

I would become a complete wreck two weeks before my period. I started noticing that it would become worse and worse as i reached 27.. I would not be able to concentrate i would feel that the world was coming to an end, i hated everyone , i took time off of work to sleep in, i hated myself. This was two weeks before my period. the other two weeks I was a happy goal oriented positive person.
I contacted my aunt whos a premed student and asked her what was wrong with me. I knew it wasn't PMS because my symptoms were so overpowering. She told me that I probably had PMDD and to take YAZ (birth control) .
Its my third month on it and I can not begin to tell you how happy i am she recommended this pill to me. Only side effects I ve had have been a little bloating and back pain... all worth having my sanity back.

I have been on the NuvaRing for about 6 months. I previously had the Mirena, which I also hated because I had every side effect in the book plus a couple more. I NuvaRing is alright, but I haver noticed that my skin is terrible. I have really dry irritating patches on both of my cheeks. I know that I am more irritated and moody, now by reading the posts I know that cause, here I thought I just hated my husband :). I also hate the discharge that comes with the NuvaRing. I actually didn't use the NuvaRing for one month because I never got the Rx in time and I didn't have any problems, life was good. I really don't trust myself without BC because I already have two kids and my last child was the definition of it only takes one time to get pregnant. I agree with the person that said they are ready for male BC.
