So I’ve just started taking microgynon after various experiments with other pills that made my hair shed amongst other problems. After not taking any pills since last August, I’m 3 weeks in with microgynon and I’ve become an anxious, stroppy, tearful mess. I feel like I’m always about to make a massive speech or waiting to hear some dreadful news - but for no reason, and nothing has changed in my life over the past month except taking these pills. In the past, doctors have been very dismissive of ‘mental health side effects’ caused by the pill, so thought I would open it up the general consensus to see if anyone else has struggled with this, or whether this is just coincidental and I need to get some help for my anxiety?!
