I'm feeling like hell after taking Plan B emergency contraception....My body is exhausted, my period came 7-10 days earlier than usual, I'm really emotional, had really severe cramping right before my period did start, etc.

I'm not sure if I could ever do this again, messing with Nature and my body soo very much.

I just need to vent and not feel so alone in my misery, so thanks for listening

People, including my fiance, tell me these symptoms are so much better than the alternative, a child, but honestly, it feels more than a little wrong playing God...

I know how that feels *hugs*

“It’s an interesting thing. Seeing Kuan Yin relating to a flower so intently. She's not just looking at it; she's interacting with it…I’m seeing how the act of relating to a flower appears to be so simple. Yet, it takes a tremendous amount of courage to make such a “simple” act important. Now, the lotus is floating away.”

Tell him that next time he should wear a condom.

I don't understand why men always say something stupid like that. Especially when they don't know what you're going through. "well it's better than this", "just be happy.."
blah blah blah. Put a sock in it. You don't want a baby then go get snipped. If you tell him that I'm sure that he'll shut up about the plan-B

(sorry about the mini rant)

Ummm, littlecloud, we had a condom break, so it was totally not his fault.

Thanks for the empathy on men's attitudes toward womens' body stuff though

sowwy I think I misunderstood/projected a bit.
I've just seen and experienced men being insensitive to women many times and it really gets on my nerves.
Sorry for letting my own personal issues get in the middle of things.

I got my period again this month, but it was really odd, came on at the right time, but literally out of nowhere, no PMS like usual. It's only been like 2.5 days so far, and really light, except the first full day...I'm just so ready to be done with the side effects of this blasted M.A.P....

I used it and didn't notice any difference between periods, but my period was sooo much less painful that month. Normally I'm on the verge of vomiting and chugging down pain pills at least one day, and that never happened. Still I don't think it's a good pill to use.
