There are lots of different birth control methods that can stop periods and even lots of different pills! Which pills did you try and what negative side effects did you have?

Huh so they tried a really high dose of estrogen and a really low dose. It might be worth trying a progestin-only dose or non-oral next if you’re ever open to trying it again. You could try basically anything besides a combo pill (POP, patch, ring, IUD, implant). Estrogen is usually what causes the nausea side effect, especially when it goes thru your digestive system. Nothing wrong with not wanting to use birth control, but you still have options if circumstances ever change and you want it!
