Birth Control Symptoms and Unprotected Sex

Unread post by Sam W »

Hi Popgoesdaweal,

So, for starters, if you're very paranoid about pregnancy and afraid of having it happen, can I ask why you're engaging in sex, especially unprotected sex? Do you think you would feel better if you dialed back to activities where there is no risk of pregnancy?

Too, how are you feeling about using the pill as a method? Does it feel like a method that works well for you, or are you thinking there might be a method that you would trust more or feel more comfortable using?

As for the cramps, if you read they were a possible side effect of your pill brand, then that could be what's happening. However, if you notice the cramping not going away or getting worse, you'll want to check in with a healthcare provider, as abdominal pain can be a symptom of different things.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
