As the title says, my phone has started performing poorly ever since the new system update. Apps crash often, the battery has gotten absolutely wrecked - it's as if Super fast charging 2.0 doesn't even work anymore (the charger is not the issue, it's the phone), and the phone has started heating up during charging. The battery drains much faster, AND battery health has gone down 2% in the 2-3 weeks that I've had the new updated system (I check battery health every month and it's been at 100% up until I updated the phone). I've had to use power saving just to get through the day. Does anyone else have this issue? What should I do (returning the phone is not an option)? The previous phone I had was a Note 9 so I'm unsure whether this behaviour is normal in newer Samsung phones.

I (24f) started using Cerazette last night

It was an impulsive decision

I woke up on Sunday having started my period. This Sunday was the day I was looking forward to the whole month. The only day I had things planned for since December. I was so pissed off. I felt like my body betrayed me.

I have to take almost 4× the recommended dose of painkillers for the pain not to affect me.

Safe to say I felt like absolute shit on Sunday and slept through most of Monday and half of Tuesday (today). I have also never had this bad of a flow, and this much back pain.

And so I researched online and decided to get Cerazette. I'm a virgin, I don't have a partner, I don't want kids and I just want to at least try and get rid of the heavy flow and the pain.

Where I live right now, I'm not able to go to a doctor for matters such as this

I live in a country that frowns at contraceptives and heavily propagates pregnancy in teen years...

But I looked up when one shouldn't use Cerazette and I don't fall under the "not safe to use" category.

So when I went to pick the pills up yesterday, I decided to ask the pharmacist if she has any recommendations for me

She was incredibly rude and looked at me as if I was the devil for even thinking about using birth control. She rudely told me she's not allowed to give me any thoughts on hormonal pills. Which really didn't help because I have serious religious trauma.

I still am religious, just not indoctrinated like I used to be, so her attitude towards me really made me feel guilty and sinful.

And now I'm wondering whether to even keep using Cerazette.

I guess I'm looking for comfort and reassurance. I don't know.

I'm also wondering, can Cerazette cause serious problems in a short time period of using it?

I guess I'm just scared.

But at the same time I cannot keep going on like this. I have 7 day periods with a heavy flow 4/7 days and pain the first two days. I am basically for nothing those 4 days.

I'm tired of my body, and I'm tired of hearing my mother's voice saying "If God didn't intend it that way, it wouldn't be that way"...
