Probably LTR, on Hormonal contraceptives

If you’re that worried about how she will perceive you when she comes off the contraceptive then you’ve got bigger issues than her potential hormonal changes.

Plus two months is not nearly long enough to vet properly, and she’s already your LTR if you’re exclusive.

If you think she’ll see you as beta when she’s off the pill then you are a beta and have bigger problems to worry about. Go back to the basics. Lift + side bar

You're overanalyzing this my dude. Slow your hamster down a little and take this one day at a time. Wether she takes this or something else you'll get to a point where you can easily figure out how to navigate the waters, just takes some time.

As a girl who used contraceptives for 15 years and then came off them in my 30's when my husband got a vasectomy all I can say is that for about 6 months I felt "off". Headaches, had hot flashes and cold sweats, my libido dropped for about 2 months and then I became a sex cat. I think women can have both good and bad reactions to dropping their pills. Personally I am glad my husband and I decided ahead of time we didn't want children and he expressed concern about my health remaining on those drugs and offered to get a vasectomy. I am glad he did and our sex life actually improved. This may not be the case for all women. We react differently to hormones. As for these drugs changing how I perceived the men in my life... I never experienced this myself. I went on and off the meds in my teens and 20's and it didn't change how I felt about men in general or the guy I was dating.

I think it shows a great deal of respect you have for yourself, her and the future you want to think about her health. Some men don't think twice about how our bodies react to being on BC nor the dangers posed. My one friend from HS almost died due to blood clots forming in her legs due to being on the Nuvaring. Now she can never take them again and has to take blood thinners the rest of her life.

Best of Luck and remember, take your time! No point in rushing through a relationship. My husband and I were together for 3 years before we walked down the aisle.

I was recently dating a girl who started birth control and accutane. The relationship was fucking electric. She was completely hooked on me. Christian girl that went farther with me than anyone else(everything but sex) a handful of times. We dated 3 months and she said I love you for the first time before breaking up with me the next day. She started those medications the beginning of that week. The next week she was dating a dude 8 years older than her, they didnt work out. She still stalks my profile but cant even look in my direction when im around once a week. I too would like some clarity regarding these drugs and their effects on women. So far ive read women on BC prefer more beta men. I still dont understand how a girl can be so hot for me one day and go completely cold the next

Non issue. If she’s coming off hormone pills it’s to have a baby, which will whack her hormones up way more than the pills were. The issue is if you’re a man who can lead her despite her hormones, not what her hormones will be like coming off the pill.

If you're exclusive it's an LTR. I'm not even exclusice to my LTR yet and it's an LTR
The effects are typically not as wild as they are in some outlier cases. My LTR is normally on birth control but sometimes goes off but has never denied having sex with me in either case. She's into me regardless, which your LTR would/should be too.
