Being on the pill is different for every women. I started at 17. I stopped in my early 30's. When my period started I was so depressed and psychotic. I actually felt better, when I stopped. My mood changes leveled. It was the best for me.

I think it's a personal choice. I don't believe all those studies by men on a woman's body.
