Down Regulation cycle and the pill

[Andie78]

i got a headache or two when i started the pill, but eased off after the first week (same thing when i started syranel, and like faye i had a few random days where i have felt like crying for no apparent reason). i have been spotting the entire time while on pill (around 3-4 weeks) , nurses tell me this can happen and is 'normal'.

havent noticed weight gain, maybe a kilo... but i havent been eating that well lately, so might just be too many coffee & cake days.

Oh my ovaries! They are so sore and feel swollen (almost like when you are stimming). Can I blame the pill?

I don't recall that side effect, but I never lasted more than a few days so maybe I didn't hit that point...

Heat pack time!
