advice
Can birth control give you really really bad mood swings? I started on Ortho tricyclen about three months ago (I'm 19), and recently I've been having really bad mood swings. Could birth control be causing that? Or could it just be outside stress? (which I do have a lot of right now) Any help will be appreciated...I'll rate a 5!
Hey hun, first of all if this advice isnt the best, you dont have to bribe me and give me a 5. lol im here to help. im 16 and ill be 17 in march, ive been on birth conrol since just after my 15 birthday. ive been on 4 different kinds. i did however notice that it did give me really bad mood swings in the beginnign. i was constantly fighting with my mom and everyone around me. BUT as time went on things got better. so i dont know if its the Ortho tricyclen or if its the stress- i also noticed that when i get more stressed i get bad mood swings. i think that if you are really concerned about this you should talk to your obgyn or your dr. giving it to you. i hope that this helped and everything works out!
(Rating: 5) thanks so much! i'm going to give it a few more months and see if when finals are over the stress gets less and i get less irritable...otherwise ill think about switching.
