Hey,
I would have tried another BCP, but because I don't get migraines unless I am taking Marvelon or probably any other pill, he said that having migraines and taking the pill is a contraindiction.
Had a coil fitted last night (ouch!!!!) and waiting for an appointment with gynae to find an alternative way to manage my pcos...
Think the break from hormones will do me good. I have been in a lot of pain, and this coupled with the constant migraines has caused me to have depression.
Once I get settled with my IUD, I think I should feel a bit better. I'm slowly starting to feel "normal" again. I know that my pill (even though it helped my skin and weight a bit) has definitely caused me to feel totally withdrawn, like I'm not really there.
I'm not criticising BCPs as I believe they are a godsend in some cases, I just know I've had enough, and perhaps the daily migraines were a blessing in disguise!!
