Birth Control and Mood Stabilizers

So....I'm thinking about going on birth control because it's just not enough for me to have my boyfriend use a condom, we've had a scare twice...right now I'm late on my period, and I'm probably going to get a pregnancy test this week....I just don't like being scared...we always use protection...

Anyway, I heard that if you are depressed/bipolar, birth control can worsen it, make you more depressed, and doesn't always mix with other pills...I'm on Lamictal...do you think it might make me more depressed....

also, what birth control would you reccomend...I've researched shit and A LOT of people get blood clots... I read a lot about people getting blood clots in their lungs....I'm afraid of this on top of everything else....

are you a smoker? I think a high percentage of the people who get clots are the ones who smoke or who have high blood pressure.

I don't really know what would be best for you but I can only suggest making a trip to the doctor and asking them.

I'm fairly sure a low dose pill or even nuvaring wouldn't be a problem. Here's a list of low dose and ultra low dose pills

I only smoke when I'm stressed out (seriously something like 4 packs A YEAR) and I recreationally smoke pot.

thanks for the link...

I'll make an appointment if I'm convinced enough that this is a good idea....payment at the desk is $15

yeah basically.
if yr not smoking yr most likely not at risk for clots.

they say that if yr smoking 15+ ciggs a day theres a problem.
i guess if youd sneak one every now and then it wouldnt kill you.
but from experience, id say avoid smoking.
cause i had some wacky shit happen to me (losing feeling in my extremities and shit) so its not fun.

idk about marijuana though?...

ANYWAY.
as far as moods go, ive heard that birth control helps yr moods even out?
especially helps at yr time of the month and all that.
