Hello!

Birth control is my friend!
ok.. so I've been on it since I was 18.. so five almost six years.

Anyways.. my ibs has been the same.. and as for my pms.. I honestly can't tell because I've been on birthcontrol for so long, I don't remember what it was like without it.

my cramps have lessened though.. which is a plus.

I started out on triphasil and was fine, but my doctor took me off of it because they thought it was stupid for me to be taking so much estrogen at 18, 19 years old.

So then I switched to Aleese, and I actually lost 10 pounds miraculously going on that.. I think it was the drop in the estrogen levels. I ended up going of aleese in less than a year because if you miss a pill by even one hour you get annoying breakthru bleeding, because it is so low estrogen. Anyways... I couldn't stick to such a strict schedule..

so for the last few years i've been on Mircette and I love it. I think my pms has lessened since starting mircette in comparison to the other two pills.. and no breakthru bleeding at all.

good luck.
