Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo and iud

I was on ortho tri-cyclen lo from the time i was 16 til i turned 21... i liked it.. my sex drive was awesome, but it did make me horrifically moody during my period. I have currently been on the nuvaring for 2 months, which has it's perks (you don't have to remember to take it, i have no cramps or moodiness) but my breasts throb 24/7, im hungry ALL the time (like starving), i'm bloated, get gas about every day after i eat dinner, i've gained a few pounds, i wake up 3 times in the middle of the night, and i have next to no sex drive.. and when i do, sex is dry and it burns! So i'm going back to ortho... i will for sure trade weight gain and dry painful sex for moodiness on my period! I really don't think there is a bc without side effects, you just have to try a few and see which one you hate and which one you can live with. All in all... ortho tri-cyclen lol has been the best one!

Been on it for over 2 years now..loved it at first, it cleared up my acne, made my periods manageable and made my cup size go up!.. but in the last few weeks I've had a really low sex drive, I have also had several yeast infections since I have been on it..never had one till I started using BC. And now my toe and finger nails are severely chipping..it's frustrating.. I love taking it for the perks but the side effects are starting to out weigh the benefits.

Just got my IUD taken out on Fri. 6 days ago. I started taking Ortho lo that night, well every night that I have taken it, I have been sick to my stomach, can't sleep I am so sick. So not taking that anymore. It's like 4 in the morning and I am up b/c of it. Can't take it anymore.
