Common Questions and Answers about Sprintec mood swings

Avatar f tn But I wanted to see if all of these symptoms could even be caused by my birth control? I know mood swings and bloating are common. But the weight gain in my stomach and lower back pain were not expected. Should I be worried about something else such as IBS or other hormonal imbalances? I even took multiple pregnancy tests which were negative and I've been getting my period every month. But my body feels like it's tricking itself into feeling pregnant or something.

Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn My sister just has a really hard time tolerating the hormones - gives her severe headaches, massive mood swings (like stay the hell out of the way mood swings), etc. She's tried a bunch of different ones, all with the same result. It may be that you need some time to adjust - that can take a few months. Some you've been on that long, so clearly those weren't right for you. Only you know if the symptoms are bad enough to stop, and they may be.
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm eighteen and recently got my wisdom teeth taken out so I had to take anti-biotics for a week and the doctor told me if would interfere with my oral contraceptives, Sprintec (norgestimate and ethinyl estradiol tablets, 0.250 mg/0.035 mg). I got the antibiotics at the same time as I started my new pack of birth control and took them both for the first week of my cycle, and I used protection until the next week when my antibiotics ran out (because, of course, things happen).

Avatar f tn m 9w2d and was wondering if any other mummies to be are experiencing very high mood swings I seem to get very angry really quickly and I assume every remark said is stupid. How can I fix this problem? And btw it's only with my husband most of the time.
Avatar f tn 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...
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn in only 6 weeks and I have mood swings like crazy?.. Is this normal because I feel like it's not?....
Avatar f tn 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.
