Think maybe my pill is making me grumpy?

[Isadora]

I've noticed over the past few months that sometimes I get very grumpy at the smallest things and I no longer seem to have as much patience as I once did. I've been on Loette now for around 7 months. It seems that when I stop taking the pill during the cycle I am fine, however as soon as I go back on it I get grumpy. I've started my new cycle as of two days ago, could it work that fast in affecting my mood?!

Don't know for sure, but I think that it could. I hate being on the pill because I feel that it affects my moods. Being on the mini pill I don't have the same effects as when I was taking the regular pill. Maybe go to your Dr and see about getting a different brand.

YES! The pill made me a mad woman! I had to stop and go on the depo needle, which still made me cranky but not as bad.

I too would snap at the smallest problem when i was on the pill, especially in the morning! Ok im still not a morning person but much better now since i stopped taking it and have been charting my cycle/ billings method combination.

Oh yes, definitely possible! The pill made me grumpy and moody. I was such a different person when I stopped taking it and I felt so much better too.
