Norethindrone
birth control
"I started Norethindrone back in January, here it is the middle of May. I started the pill because of the obvious, "Don't want to get pregnant," and "We'd prefer to be safer than sorry", storyline.
I suffer from Chronic Migraine, so my doctor prescribed the mini-pill as an option, not wanting them to intensify.
Well, in that aspect, the pill worked. And has worked. It's also worked with preventing pregnancy. Thank goodness.
What it hasn't worked with is everything else. Almost 6 months on it and I've gained almost 15 pounds, and my periods have become almost completely unbearable!!!! And not to mention they come about every 2 weeks, if they even come that far apart!!"
