FFP 079 | The Top 10 Unexpected Effects of Coming Off The Pill | Lisa | Fertility Friday

In this episode, I stray from my usual interview format once again to share the top 10 unexpected effects of coming off the pill. I go through what to expect when you come off the pill from when your period will return to unexpected changes in your fertility.

In case you don’t know me already a few things you might want to know are that I am and  I have been charting my own cycles using the Fertility Awareness Method for the past 14 years or so, and I am the founder of FertilityFriday.com as well as the Fertility Friday Podcast!

Topics discussed in today's episode

• How does the pill work to prevent pregnancy?
• How does the pill impact a woman's sex drive?
• How might your breasts change after coming off the pill?
• What impact could hormonal contraceptives have on your mood?
• If you went on the pill because of painful periods or acne, will all those symptoms come back when you stop taking it?

• How the fertility awareness method can boost your confidence to effectively prevent pregnancy without using hormonal contraceptives
