I took Micronor after our first child and thought it was great. However, I recently decided to start taking it again after having our second child and have been in a terrible state in the space of about 10 days. I can't believe how quickly this pill has altered my mood. I've been a nightmare to live with. I'm extremely anxious and snappy and I feel paranoid about the way I look. DH and I had a chat about it yesterday and he suggested that I just stop taking it and see if it makes any difference. I honestly feel about 100 times better this morning. I'm going to see my GP to see about an alternative.
Has anyone had a similar experience and can you recommend a different pill? I don't need to be on mini-pill as DS is no longer BF but I didn't really get on with the combined pill as I felt that I put on loads of weight when I took it before.
