I am considering taking a break from hormonal birth control. Just a short one...I just feel my body as been on a hormonal roller coaster the last 10 months. I have gained 15lbs that wont go anywhere. I do love the Nuvaring but I feel like I need to get all hormones out of me and start over. But I dont know if there is any value to that?? How long should it be?? Does a month off really accomplish anything?? I want to stay on hormones because of how it regulates my period.
If I do take a short break, will my body go crazy again as soon as I go back on???
