:bouncing: Congrats to you...After having some self therapy, I too have decided to come off the pill also (kariva).. The past year I have been depressed and couldnt understand why...I have gained 28pds after working hard on Weight Watchers to loose weight...I have since gone back on WW's not to have lost 1pd my first week in which I was totally committed and walking 1 mile a day..I was distraught..I have also in the last year began to loose alot of hair..Its so not worth it..I take BC because of endometriosis and I can only pray to God that there's a better option for me....(not BC)...

[QUOTE=wonderingtoo;2765892]I just started the pill because the GYN thinks I might have endo. I feel horrible, and don't know how much is the pill.
I'm tired allllll the time, I'm moody, I'm having a headache right now. My appetite is really increased. I'm so afraid I'm going to gain a lot of weight.
Also, I feel like I'm having morning sickness all the time and I feel like i constantly need to be eating something salty like crackers.

But the weird thing is a bad taste in my mouth all the time. Has anyone else had this with the pill? I'm thinking of quitting right now a week into it, but I know I should wait at least until the placebo pills.

Hi wondering..I too was put on bc (kariva) because I have endo..I was having excruciating cramps..I had also began to cramp on any given day not just when I was on my period...Ive never liked taking bc and have also had the symptoms your having...Im not a Dr. but I have no doubt that those are side effects...After 2 1/2 yrs of bc I gained 28pds and terrible hair breakage..Im coming off the pill regardless of the pain I may have with endo..Atleast I wont have the mood swings and depression along w/the other side effects
