BCP-holy mood swings

RE has put me on the pill so we can move forward with IVF later this month. I started it three days ago. Today I have been feeling so horribly out of control emotionally. So angry, irritable and sad. Is it possible the pill is causing this after only 3 days? I was on it many years ago and remember not liking it but I don't remember it affecting me this badly. This sucks.

  • I am sorry, I hear you. These hormones mess up your emotions a lot. What helps me is watching something funny. I hope you feel better soon.

  • I hear ya!! Today is my last day of BCP and I couldn't be happier! I'd rather take Lupron for the rest of my life than take BCP for one more day! I'm so moody too!! Hang in there!
  • Yeah BCP is the worst. I hate it so much. I'm getting ready to start mine tomorrow and I have to do 2 pills a day due to my canceled cycle last month. SO looking forward to that- not.
