[QUOTE="Frazzled Minnie, post: 321, member: 121"] I had crazy mood swings and just felt outside myself while I was on the pill. I truly believe that doctors have our best interests in mind when they recommend hormonal birth control. They look at the data and recommend the option with the highest efficacy. After all we go in there saying I want something that is going to keep me from getting pregnant. It does feel very much like being stuck between a rock and a hard place though. I stopped taking the pill and we use condoms now. I'll admit I still get a little nervous about it, we have 3 kids and I'm really done. I wish there was a no fail non hormonal option other than abstinence. Theres the copper IUD but that can cause heavy periods and there is some talk about risks from the copper itself. I haven't looked at that in any detail because the thought of heavy periods ruled that one out for me. Honesty genuine question, why would you consider keeping the IUD if you think it's making you sick? [/QUOTE]
