Hello!

I've been on hormonal BC since I was around 12 ( for Heavy bleeding )

I'm now 26.5 and really wanted to feel more natural with my body and see if some of the health conditions I have get better without it.

Health conditions - #PotS, chronic nausea, headaches, fatigue, weight gain.

I read everything there is, to what to expect, and was told it depends on the person. So I bit the bullet and got it out on the 17th of Aug 2023.

My husband/nesting partner got a vasectomy 3 months ago and is getting double tested for no swimmers in 2 weeks.

If I sleep with another person who could impregnate me I'd use condoms and use the NC apps green days. However I don't see that happening anytime soon.

-Removal - I had a lot of anxiety leading up to the removal only due to how my mental health and bleeding would handle it. The process is painless and takes seconds.

Day two - no change

Day three - my boobs are so so so soft now ? Fun to play with. Never realized how firm and hard/ painful they used to be. They are kinda tender.

Day four - Cramps, headaches, anxiety

Day five - back pain, so sleepy spotting.

Day 6 - full period/ withdrawal bleeding. Back pain, headache and fatigue.

I have felt some disassociation, that's to be expected there's a lot changing right now on my life.

I'll be here if y'all have questions
