If you haven't tried BC yet, I STRONGLY suggest you look into it a lot before doing it, especially if you're only doing it for NBE. I was on BC on and off for years (originally to stabilize my almost complete lack of estrogen), and it never did anything negative to me until the very last time I tried it. Then it gave me THE WORST side effects I've ever experienced, including a month and a half of bleeding and a completely destroyed libido (it's been a year and a half now and I still don't have the libido I used to have). And I NEVER grew at all on it. There's no saying whether or not you will grow from it, and you might find that the risks don't make it worth it. Actually, I swelled a little bit from the libido herbs I took AFTER the birth control mess, rather than the actual birth control.

I know it's your decision and I know my reaction to BC wasn't normal, and I'm in no way telling you not to take it, but it's always good to know the dangers before getting into something. No one ever told me of any side effects besides possibly clearing up my acne, bigger boobs and shorter, lighter periods. :/ So I just like to make sure that other people are aware that there ARE other side effects, and it's a much bigger decision to get on it than people make it seem.
