In The Hut

I got my first period on birth control pills yesterday-- something to deal with being around my chorus teacher, he always brings about my periods....

Birth control pills are the best! For the first time, I actually don't mind my period. It's my first month on the pills, so I wasn't expecting anything drastic. It did lessen the symptoms of my period. Granted I'm still bleeding a lot, but not as heavy as before. I don't have to wear overnight pads during the day anymore. Score! And I'm not incapacitated by my cramps. I still get them, but they are nowhere near making me double over and cry for the entire day like the usually do. It was also nice knowing that my period was coming this week, something that I've never been able to predict before.

Sorry about the rant, but getting ortho tricyclen is probably the best thing I have done in a LONG time. I had to tell someone.
