For a year or so now, I've had horrible periods. Two weeks before my period, my breasts would swell and hurt so bad I couldn't lay on my tummy. Then a week or so before, I'd get bloated and I'd have terrible mood swings with nausea. Two days before I'd have a migraine and I'd usually go to the ER for treatments (I have migraines anyway pretty regularly.) I've had a teacher with the same problem tell me that birth control can help me out a LOT with migraines and my actual period. A few of my friends and a few family members have also suggested it. I just want to know what others have tried and how it's worked for them.
I'm only interested in pills because I'm worried my body will reject an IUD and I'm not into the shots (friends with bad experiences). I'm worried about weight gain and depression like I've seen happen with different people. I'm 17 and I'm 111 pounds if that helps with anything, haha. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
