Coming off mini pill - feel half dead?!

I am wondering if anyone has any experience of coming off the mini pill and feeling really weird?
I have been off the pill for a month now, and for the last couple of days I’ve felt a bit like I’m on a boat - quite often a bit wobbly, lightheaded etc. I’m also completely shattered.
Definitely not pg - coming off pill to ttc DC2 if I’m lucky enough, but absolutely no chance I’m pg this month iycwim
Anyone got any experience of this?
Thanks all.

Hi 1sttimeunicorn

I stopped taking the mini pill cerelle only 4 days ago to begin TTC and have found I feel very teary, very clingy with my husband and just generally a bit rubbish (not sick but almost as if I’m coming down with something). I’m also extremely tired.

If I’m honest since I’ve been googling these symptoms this morning I’ve noticed a lot of threads about people suffering horrendously both on and when coming off the mini pill.

I hope you feel better soon! Smile

It may be because your body has been used to taking it and now it's not your having a reaction. At the end of the day contraceptive pills are drugs and drugs can do weird stuff to people's bodies. If your worried just see your GP for piece of mind. All the best
