What form of birth control are you using? This is absolutely no judgement, more my venting my frustration with a cultural narrative that disempowers women from our own bodies. Hormonal birth control of any kind is horrible for your health. It's classified as a carcinogen and yet "health care" practitioners had it out like m and ms. You can only get pregnant for about one week out of the month. Determining that window of opportunity isn't rocket science and should be taught in health classes in junior high, but it's serves a greater purpose in a patriarchal culture to continue teaching girls to loath their bodies and act like our fertility is some wild incomprehensible thing.

I don't personally have any experience with the MAP, but was on regular BCPs for 12 years. When I went off of it, I swore I would never go back on and I didn't. Now my cycle is in sync with the moon (seriously, no joke) and it's even easier to predict. Your experience sounds pretty normal, but I'd find a good naturopath if you continue to have issues. OBGYNs are among the most violent of Western medical practitioners in my opinion. By and large, they perpetuate the problem of teaching women that our bodies are not our own and convince most that they are something that needs "controlling".
