FFP 146 | Anxiety, Depression&Low Libido | The Truth About Hormonal Birth Control | LeAnna&Samantha - a podcast by Lisa | Fertility Friday
from 2017-07-07T04:00:15
In today’s episode, I have 2 members of the Fertility Friday community on the show to share their experience with hormonal contraceptives. Both LeAnna and Samantha had a range of negative experiences while on hormonal contraceptives, but like most women, they didn’t realize the pill was the cause of their symptoms until much later.
Samantha and LeAnna candidly share their experiences with hormonal contraceptives. From panic attacks to anxiety and depression, they tell all.
