Birth control

2020-09-03 10:25:57
I have always relied on condoms or emergency pills for birth control, but now that am married, I don't want to have to rely on these 2 options anymore. I have heard that regular pills cause anxiety and mood swings, is it a myth? I would want to move to a full proof birth control strategy. Just want to enquire if there are any pills that would not cause any side effects.
