All you Girls out there: Which Birth Control Pill seems to have the least side effects?



Which Pill do you like best? The ones I have used all give me headaches, weight gain, moodiness, etc....
Im looking for a Pill that seems to have the least side effects.

I've been on 3 different pills. I did well with ortho-tri-cyclen, but I wanted something that was the same dose continually so I could just keep taking it and skip my period if I wanted. My doctor switched me to demulen 1/35, and I tolerated that really well, I used it for about 5 years with no problems. Now I'm on yasmin, and I hate it, I get the worst PMS, but I'm not sure if it's the pill or if my hormones have changed, I've had two kids since I was last on the pill, so who knows. Talk to your doctor, there are sooooo many options out there, with your doctors help you should be able to find one that works for you.

probably the 'mini pill' although it has to be taken strictly at the same time each day and is not as reliable as the ordinary pill
I was on 3 different ones and I liked Ortho Tricyclen. I don't remember the first one they had me on but it gave me horrible cramps when I'd never had them before. The Lo Ovral I was on second was good but I switched for the complexion benefits of Ortho Tricyclen. You should ask your doctor about low-dose b/c. It can be just as effective and should give you less side-effects.
Use rubbers. Due to the high rate of HIV and other STD's as well as early pregnancy, the highest success rate still belongs to the prophalactic in preventing all of these things. You may be like me, your system is just too sensitive to take birth control pills. I got so sick on them one time that I swore I would never take them again.

I now have four children, mostly because I didn't use rubbers. If I had it to do all over again, I would insist on rubbers. Though I am quite happy to have four healthy and beautiful children, I'm quite sure that this is not the outcome you want. My daughter is studying in the health field and her specialty is birth control. She would tell you the same thing. There is no guarantee against pregnancy with "The Pill". I have 4 kids to prove it!

All birth control pills have side effects, most of which can cause ovarian or breast cancer in the long run, not to mention other growths and blood clots.
Experience...My daughter with a Masters in Health Science Degree and a Master's Degree in Social Work.
I was on ortho tricyclen lo for 5 years and I didn't have any side effects. It didn't make me gain weight or anything. And it gave me very regular, lighter periods. :)
