Uh, the struggle is so real!
News
flash: It is tough being a woman. We have to worry about stuff like breast
cancer, our periods, babies, our weight… the list goes on. And while birth
control definitely makes our hectic lives a little easier, that doesn’t mean
it’s perfect. Here are nine struggles any woman who takes the the Pill can
understand:
1. Having to take it with
you EVERYWHERE
Hey,
you’re a woman on the go! You might have to work late, zip off to an afterwork
function or rush to the office early to prep for your big presentation. There’s
just no guarantee you’ll be home at the same time every single day. The old
ball and chain isn’t your partner… it’s your birth control. Between switching
up your bag every day and trying to decide whether or not it’s safe to leave it
at home just once (hello can Cape Town’s weather just make up its mind?!), this
gets old, really fast.
2. Snoozing your birth
control alarm
Just
too lazy to take it in that moment? Don’t worry, we’ve been there too! The
problem is that if you turn off your alarm, you’ll just forget to take it…even
if it’s sitting on the table in plain sight. Yup.
3. Blaming all of your
problems on the Pill
Are
you gaining weight? Totally the Pill’s fault. Feeling extra moody? Definitely
the Pill, right? Craving that slap of chocolate? Yeah, thanks for nothing birth
control!
4. Popping it out of the
pack actually hurts your thumbs a lot
No,
your thumbs are not extra sensitive. Sometimes those little suckers just don’t
want to budge and you’re left with a dent in your finger for the next 10
minutes.
5. Doubling up because you
forgot to take it
Guilty
as charged! Despite the fact you’re a responsible adult and take it everyday,
you’re still not perfect and *sometimes* even you forget to pop the Pill.
Occasionally you miss a day and have to take two, which is a real pain if you
have a sensitive stomach. FYI – if this is happening to you on the regular,
maybe consider an IUD, which requires zero reminders.
6. Waiting on the red-tape
hell that is a prescription re-fill
Seriously,
why is getting birth control so difficult? We’re all just trying to make
responsible decisions here
7. Forgetting to take it too
many days in a row and getting your period
Again,
mistakes happen. Maybe you misplaced it or maybe you’re being pulled in a
billion directions and forgot. The second that crimson tide rolls in (or maybe
just a little spot), a second wave of regret washes over you as you go to buy
tampons two weeks before you originally planned.
8. Dropping it and spending
20 minutes looking for it
God
forbid you pop that thing out of its package and it misses your palm. Next
thing you know you’re on your hands and knees frantically searching for a blue
dot smaller than an earring back.
9. Feeling a plague of acne
if you ever dare go off it
Ah,
this is bittersweet. On one side, your skin is the clearest it’s ever been and
you are a goddess among women. On the other hand, you’ve been on this thing for
the past six years and have no idea what your actual skin looks like without
it. Will there be an acne eruption? No one knows.
