    Very informative video. Thank you for posting. Birth control pills are not for everyone and the most significant problem that I see with them is the danger they pose of developing deadly blood clots. Although the risk of this occurring is extraordinarily small, it does happen and the medical community tends to downplay it. In September of 2018, my 20 year old daughter passed away due to blood clots that were triggered by her use of a combination birth control pill. She died of a massive heart attack and the damage to her body was so extensive that none of her organs, tissue, or even eyes could be donated. It was as if a weapon of mass destruction went off inside of my daughter’s body. Please ladies carefully consider all of the pros and cons before deciding to go on birth control. I would even recommend exhausting all natural options first before even considering taking synthetic hormones into your body. The pill is marketed as being empowering to women, but I don’t feel that a man made substance that manipulates the natural functioning of your body should be considered empowering. Knowing how your unique body works is real empowerment. So ladies please educate yourselves and become informed. It’s your health and possibly your life that’s at stake, not the pharmaceutical industry or the medical community.

      Sorry for your lost people must understand all these. Things are not natural and they do carry side effects. Humans beings have lived for a very long time without these inventions .

      Heavenly Soundz Spiritual Beats Messiah Music exactly! Big pharma constantly sends out messages that we need these things to make our lives better when we actually don’t. Many families have experienced what ours has but unfortunately those stories aren’t often told. Again lawsuits are filed, settlements are reached, big pharma admits no wrongdoing, and families are prohibited from discussing what has occurred. Then the process repeats itself.

    I only took it for 3,5 months but my SHBG has stayed elevated for almost a year after stopping... I wish I saw this before going on the pill.

      @@n8zuster I have no idea, haven't rechecked. But I think my active testosterone is still low as I have a low sex drive, basically only before ovulation. I'm working on it now with strength training and I think cruciferous veggies has helped a lot to combat the strongest symptoms
