Singer Anitta ditched birth control after the hormones it released made her life \u2018crazy\u2019<\/p>\n
\nThe 31-year-old Brazilian \u2013 real name Larissa de Macedo Machado \u2013 said she gave up her form of contraception after she was hit with crippling symptoms including mood swings and depression.<\/p>\n
\nShe told 36-year-old Jay Shetty\u2019s \u2018On Purpose\u2019 podcast: \u201cBirth control was not natural for me. I felt it was unfair that only women have to deal with it. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cHormones made life crazy for me. I couldn\u2019t be myself. My body didn\u2019t respond well to hormonal birth control.<\/p>\n
\n\u201c(It caused) hair loss, crazy skin, mood swings, depression and no energy close to my period. It was a rollercoaster.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe \u2018Girl From Rio\u2019 singer added it took \u201cmore than a year to cleanse from birth control\u201d and stop feeling side-effects.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cWhen I started living a more natural life, including a mostly vegan diet, I felt better. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cI managed two years (as a vegan) and now I\u2019m back, but 30 per cent less (meat.) <\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf everyone makes small changes, it\u2019s already a big shift for the universe.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nAnitta also said birth control \u201cshould be joint responsibility\u201d for men and women, and said sexual politics would be very different if males could conceive.<\/p>\n
\nShe added: \u201cIf men got pregnant, things would be very different. People don\u2019t realise the side effects of birth control on mood, performance and overall well-being.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe singer revealed said she had a copper intrauterine device fitted in her uterus, which she believes worsened her existing endometriosis. <\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cI had a copper IUD, which was terrible for my endometriosis and caused a lot of bleeding. Now, I use condoms. They exist for a reason.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nAnitta also stressed she hopes to have children in the future.<\/p>\n
\nShe said: \u201cI pray to the universe and plan when it\u2019s time for me to have children. I want to be ready and have a good partner.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
