birth control pills

I began juice fasting 3 years ago and felt so isolated through the process then. Now I am so excited to see all of the people juice feasting and to hear about their experiences. All of the information has allowed me to refine and learn about what works best for myself. There have been times in the past when I felt so alone, now I know there are so many people on a similar juice journey. It is so inspiring.
Could anyone direct me to information about natural birth control methods. you Recommended books or web sites? I have been taking birth control pills since very young. I have become very uncomfortable with these pills and all medication/ drugs. Each day it is daunting to swallow the pill. I am seeking natural alternatives. This is the one element of my lifestyle that conflicts with my goals towards better health. Also,I am interested in information about the negative effects of the pill. When I try asking my doctor about this, she just says every woman should be on the pill once 18. That it is a wonderful pill. I seeking a strong argument for stopping the use of the pill. The dangers are unknown to me. Just glossed over in our culture. The pill just seems convenient but it does not go with juice feasting. I know my mood is more positive without the pill. I have had a few brief breaks from it throughout the years. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions and recommendations on how I can improve this aspect of my life.

I have a 10-year IUD as well - no hormones. That was the reason I opted for it. I absolutely LOVE the no stress, no pill, no drug solution! Wendi is right, you never even think about it once it's in. It's like a dream solution for me.

I took the pill for four years, and it messed me up BIG time. I suffered depression, weight gain, severe mood swings, and problems getting pregnant after I went off it for years. I will NEVER take the pill again!

Is the IUD painful at all? When it is first inserted or after or during periods?

Great topic. I was also curious about people views on birth control and other alternatives.
