Evangelical Sex, wow, whodathunk

[Joykins]

I've been taking hormonal BC since I was 15, before I ever even starting having sex. It's not harsh on everyone's system, and I love it. I have no bad side effects and lots of good ones. Of course I also knew one girl who had to smuggle them in her purse and take them with lunch because otherwise they would make her sick. My point is that everyone reacts differently so you shouldn't make such generalizations. I also don't know how old you are, but if you are familiar with BC pills from the 70s and 80s, the hormone levels have been reduced in recent years so side effects are less common.

You take 4-6 pills for EC within a day or 2. It's much higher than the regular birth control pill dose. More people have trouble with nausea with Plan B then they would with a daily pill.

I took a combination pills for 5 years and while I didn't have any of the other side effects, I did have that "loss of libido" one. I refused to go back on them after having my son, it just sucked so much.
