Allergic to birth control

lisasmith140483 by lisasmith140483 Talking(June 2007) (rank 201st)
Hey Guys, I am one of those lucky people that is allergic to almost all forms of birth control.lol.
If i take the regular pill i bloat i vomit and get intense headaches.
 I am allergic to Latex really badly my insides get all swollen and i roll around in pain for around 6 hours.
 The Depo shot has hideous side affects including fluid retention, vomiting headaches.
I did go o the mini pill when i stopped feeding my first baby and i got pregnant with my daughter while taking it  and i took it every day at the same time and did everything right.
I currently have the implanon implant in and its causing major headaches complete inability to loose weight and cramping even though i dont have my period.

If anyone else has this problem with birth control please dont hesitate to see your doctor, there are many ways to not get pregnant and if you have a good doctoor they can teach you how to chart your cycle and use natural remedies.

You can also call your local Child and family health centre and ask if there are any talks going on in the future about natural fertitily, these are really helpful and full of fantastic information

There is always also the diaphragm and a few other medical procedures that can be used, So please dont get upset and worry there is something out there that will work for you sometimes you just have to look a little deeper.

Have a good one ladies.
