So I’ve been on microynon 30 for over 4 years and im realising the effect it’s having on my mood. I feel so out of control sometimes and it’s draining, the irritability, random mood swings, rage etc. I exercise, eat healthily but every month before my “period” I’m so easily irritated, depressed and hormonal, and it’s not fair on my boyfriend. I’m considering switching, I’m not sure if microgynon is for me anymore. Is there another type of pill that can help with the mood swings/pms symptoms?

there’s no way of knowing if it’ll help but you could try a different brand, dosage or switch to the mini pill?

Have you considered skipping your breaks to see if it helps?

@yi_eune That’s a good point. I’ll give it a go🙏🏽
