Joliebelle, I'm glad you love Ortho tri-cyclen! Every girl's got to find what works for her. And the Ortho cases are a lot cuter than the case my pills come in.
I was glad to get of a tri cyclic pill. Talk about mood swings from hell! OMG I was a psycho bitch!

Women don't talk about their OB/GYNs the same way they'll share info about a primary care physician or a pediatrician. It's kind of a shame when you think about it.
Oh honey! I will recommend my OB and/or Reproductive Endicrinologist in a New York minute!

I was on the birth control pill for about 20 years (with a few breaks in between). I got pregnant about 15 months after stopping BC. Sadly, it ended in a miscarriage

After my miscarriage and D&C, we used condoms. I was SO NOT trying to go back on the pill (being over 35 and all). Since I had to have a D&C, they want you to wait a couple of cycles before thinking about trying again

We tossed the condoms 18 months ago
