Question:

My girlfriend wants to go on birth control what should i expect?


Answers:

Hormones in birth control affect women differently, but the main side effects are weight gain, breast tenderness, and more moodiness! So, don't hold it against her if she's overly emotional after 3 months on the pill. If it continues after 3-4 months, she should ask her health care provider to switch her to a lower dosage of hormones to help with the moodiness. Also, birth control pills take effect about a week, to a week and a half of taking them, but still does not protect against STDs.
