Not expected, but...: This might be an example of different reactions by different people. Many are prescribed birth control pills to 'fix' the very problems you name. Exceptions may 'prove the rule'. Discuss this w/ your OBGYN - there may be alternatives to try that will work better for you. Hope you do well!
