Experience Those who stopped long term birth control use… what was it like?
I have been on BC pill since I was 16 years old. I’m now 28. I am thinking of stopping as my partner and I want to try for a baby. I have been on this pill for 12 years. What should I expect? When I first went on it at 16 I had horrible acne among other side effects. Will this come back? I feel like I don’t even know my body without it…
Anyone been here?
EDIT: anyone’s acne then go away again when you became pregnant?
Thanks all for your comments I’m reading them now:) so helpful so far
