Hey Canders,

Yeah I went on the pill as a teenager at my mother's suggestion to help control my periods, they made me dizzy and vomity, and the icing on the cake was when I fainted in my chemistry lab class!

I went on Monofeme initially, but was changed by my doctor to Loette when I was diagnosed with depression (about 3-4 years ago now). I don't think there's a proven medical link between monofeme and depression, but the depressive symptoms flared up after I'd been taking it for a couple of months (although this coincided with other major life-events that my T thought triggered it).

The pill is super awesome at controlling periods, just a few minor craps occaisonally that a paracetamol can fix. Plus you can skip your period every second month if you want too.

Definitely worth looking into, imo.
