I've been on loestrin 30 for over a year, and I started taking the pill to control mood swings and to get lighter periods. For several months my periods have been really light and only lasted 2-3 days, and this month I finished taking my pills on Friday 19th, and 4 days later I still haven't got my period. I have been having unprotected sex with my boyfriend for a few months, but I always took the pills at the right time, and very rarely missed one anymore.
t had my period since the week before i started the pill. i have a lot of mood swings, food cravings, and sometimes a little bit of cramps. the first month i had spotting for a few days. the second month is was a brownish color not even for a whole day. is there any way i could be pregnant or is this normal?
The first month was pretty bad with immediate mood swings, fatigue and swollen breasts. The bleeding kept going through the whole month and stopped when my period was due! I have completed the second pack two days ago: I've had no bleeding expect a light period when it was due and the other symptoms have all improved. I have also.noticed that my sexual drive is well alive - not so much when I was taking Yasmine. Will keep you updated.
I have taken ortho-tricyclen lo for about a year now and am miserable. Depression, mood swings, food craving, weight gain, bloating, and lack of lubrication. My doctor is switching my pills to one with a higher hormone level. She says I am feeling bad because my pills are not strong enough. I start the new ones Sunday and am hoping for the best. Two things that will definitely help are more protein in your diet and exercise.
I took Loestrin for a very short time, before I began to have very bad mood :swings. I didn't feel like myself at all, it got so bad my parents wanted me to see a psychiatrist.
Hi there. I have recently started taking Lo loestrin Fe for my birth control for almost 2 months now and have been having almost continuous bleeding. That was the only problem until about two weeks ago. Now I'm having serious bloating, headaches, fatigue, cramping, mood swings, and crazy heartburn even when I don't eat anything. This was the exact string of symptoms when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I took a test but it came out negative.
I am increasingly suffering from horrible, raging mood swings that leave me exhausted. Fits of uncontrollable anger over the smallest things, uncontrollable crying at random times, serious anxiety, paranoia and dread. Naturally, this is having an effect also on my relationship as I have become really insecure and it is starting to take a toll. My sex drive is also at 0 - no desire to have sex with my boyfriend in the slightest.
I went off the Loestrin b/c I was having a lot of mood swings/anxiety/depression, which wasn't really present before. I recently went on Zoloft for about two months to try and stop the anxiety/depression, but stopped taking it as of about a week ago because I felt it might be making me worse.
Can any doctor check hormones/thyroids or does it have to be a specialist?
Thanks I mean my fiance is undstanding to he trys to help but sometimes my mood swings make me just want to be by myself especially if I get mad at something I don't know it scares me cause I try to think happy thoughts that my daughter will be here in just 10 weeks and stuff like that...
Yes. All of this is normal. My mood swings are random. I more so feel like I'm about to cry. When ppl have attitude or upset with me I just completely lose my patience.
With this being my 3rd pregnancy I'm fully aware of mood swings , but today I just want to punch my husband in the face! Everything he does is making me mad , I just don't want to be bothered with. He has talked to girls behind my back before and with being pregnant I'm flipping out 20x worse when his phone goes off! I just don't know what to do anymore.
