has anyone experienced a extreme change due to hormones from being on the pill like being moody all the time?

Yes, I had severe hormonal problems from being on the pill.  Everyone's tolerance is different, and my body just couldn't handle the imbalance hormonal birth control creates.  It took over 3 years for my body to regulate itself after I stopped taking birth control pills.

if all these things happens to you after you started the pill then yes probably with in a month maybe even a few weeks you'd most likely go back to feeling the way you did before.  you could also try talking to you doctor and try a different pill.  so many doctors do not pay attention to those "minor" side effects cause they don't have to live with them.  they are not minor to the people that have to live with them.  and one thing they often don't bother to tell girls is that some pills just screw certain people up.  it can take several pills to find one that works right with your body.  you could go through 2 or 3 or even more to find the right one... although it can be really worth it when you do. good luck i hope you find something that works out so you feel better.

it takes your body about 3 months to get used to the hormones in the pill. it is called breakthrough bleeding (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakthrough_bleeding ) \n\ncontinue with your pill and see if it happens again next month, if it does, you should tell your doctor about it, and ask if she may give you another brand. finding the right brand for you sometimes takes trial and error.

I think it's stress cause the same happens to me.You might want to change bc pills to a stronger so it doesn't screw up anymore.

This sounds just like me.  I developed horrible depression on Ortho Tri Cyclen.  Then I switched to a low dose pill (Mircette) and it helped a lot.  I definitely think you should switch.  I was on Ortho Tri Cyclen for a year and the depression didn't go away until I switched.  Besides, if you are hurting yourself then you definitely need to do something about it right now.

Everyones is different, youll just have ti try it.  I've tried several kinds of BC and they all made me feel crazy and moody but then I took Yasmin and I feel like I'm totally balaced.  by the way, my boobs did not get bigger and every kind of birth control I've taken has made me zit free for years.

It can be a side effect of the pill, they do simulate hormones and when you go messing with hormones you can kill you sex drive i was on the pill for 7 years (several different ones) and i had hardly any sex drive the whole time

Girls have mood swings when their hormone levels change. Hormone levels change from stress (either mentally or physically), new medications, inability to cope with certain life situations, and many other reasons, but those are just a few that I know of from personal experience with my own health and women around me.

Well I'm not an expert on the pill. I have been taken it for awhile and I haven't had any side effects (although everyone is different). There are many ppl that go on the pill and other birth controls just because they want regular or not periods, etc.\n\nI have never become depressed on it and I haven't heard stories of anyone that I know becoming depressed. The only experience I had on gaining weight was when I took the DEPO shot and that happens to a lot of ppl.

Serious mood swings happen to women.  Hormones fluctuate, and it effects everything from mood to how our bodies feel.  Yes, it does have to do with the women's mensrual cycle, though don't ever bring that up.  Different hormones do different things to our bodies at different times of the month.  And it gets really frustrating.  We can go from being in a good mood to wanting to cry in just a minute.  Of course, all women are different.  This effects women on different levels.  It's worse for some than others.  \nWhen a girl is going through this, remember that she can't help it.  You need to be extra nice and respectful of her, and don't make fun of her.  For most girls, don't mention PMS or anything.  We don't really want the world knowing what our bodies are doing.  Just be really nice to her, and don't take offence if it backfires.  Hope this helps!

I am beginning to, now that I am older. I have found it really goes with the hormonal changes before and during my period.  Not a fun time!

I think you should go to your doctor and ask her or him these questions.\nNot everyone reacts the same to hormones; so I think it's a bit risky to ask this question here...

I was like that until I started using the pill.  It helps a lot!
