Q: I'm searching for a good birth control method to use. I have taken Ortho Tri-Cyclen, and Depro Vera before, and would not be incredubly unwilling to try them again. The problem is that I have a very hard time remembering the pill each day, and I have heard bad things about the shot. Such as: weight gain, increase in discharge... and I find it hard to believe that it is healthy to go through your life without having your period.
I know that this should be a question for my gynocologist, but I could not get an appointment for another month or so. I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on a good method of birth control. Perhaps some good and bad experiences you have had?

I prefer Mircette. Depo Provera shot can cause several problems and can often take a long time to get your system back to normal after taking it. Mircette is a pill, much like ortho tricyclin. I have tried several different pills and Mircette has caused me the fewest side effects. There was no weight gain with it, and it cleared up my complexion! Also, when I got off of it, I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms, my period got right back on track.
