I definitely agree with canjad80. It's more of a hinderance to be pregnant than to deal with the hormones. whether you take bcp or not, it's good advice! Keep control, no contraception = no fun :)
Hi and welcome! I'm pretty new too but I'll try to help from experience. When I was on a BCP with monthly cycle I had a lot of trouble losing weight. Everyone is different in how they tolerate...
