The mini-ill is the DEVIL. I suffered from a clot due to my body not being able to take the oestrogen from the combined pill at the age of just 19. I was put on the combined pill Yasmine for medical reasons as I suffered from terrible ovulation and periods. My gynaecologist never bothered to follow up on appointments and so, as rare as it is, I developed a clot. Since then my options are limted so I opted for the mini pill as I would have to be a mother to get the Mirena and the IUD seemed rather invasive after eveythign I hade been thru. I am now regreting my choice as I feel I will have to devote my life to cellibasey if I want to come off it. The mini pill has screwed up my body. I have constant cramps in my uterus, extremely sore breasts and spots that pop up one after the other out of nowhere over night. Not only that but I don't have periods, I have constant trace spotting/bleeding that is brown in colour. My sex drive however is thru the roof and I can't get enough of it. My boyfriend is with me three years thru thick and thin but its like its his problem now too. He's amazing and patient and we hope to get married some day but its going to take its toll eventually. Can anyone recommend anything non oestrogen that I could have that isn't going to screw my body up and make me gain weight along with the other nasty side effects??
