I get a little down and *****y about a week before my period, but nothing huge. Hormonal birth control turns me into a raging ***** (like the week before my period, but the entire month instead. lol. It was horrible, and they tried me on four different kinds. All had same result).
So I can't go on hormonal birth control. My ob recommended the mirena because "there's only a small amount of hormones in it". Yeah, no.
