If you're ever debating on taking the pill or not (and you're not wanting a baby in the near future, obviously) then my advice to you is TAKE THEM! Here are just a few reasons why i miss The Pill:
1) No acne. I thought i had just grown out of it but i was sorely mistaken. Literally.
2) Bigger boobs. Nope i didn't grow those on my own either. It's not like it was a big difference, but it's noticeable to me now that it's missing.
3) Skinnier. I swear they're magic. I'm definitely better able to maintain a lower weight on the pill while still chowing down on dessert. Again not a huge difference, but at least 5 pounds.
4) A freakin' regular schedule. I could plan and organize and time everything 'cuz i knew exactly when the beginning and ending of my cycle would be at any time of any year. I know it sounds ridiculous but i've planned many a vacation and doctor appointment around this knowledge. I'm big on the planning ahead and this not-knowing is driving me crazy.
5) An overall better complexion.
The only drawback of the pill that comes to mind is having to take a pill every day. But since i'm now taking a multivitamin every day it's really not a difference.
