I've been on Femcon for the last 8 months and in the beginning it was fine, but these last 2 months have become a complete nightmare for me. I've gone into a serious depression. I'm completely bipolar and feel anxious most days. I'll start crying over nothing, and feel frustrated by my life, which let me tell you there is nothing to complain about. I feel tired a lot of the time, and can't get out of bed some times. I'll go to the gym and feel good while I'm working out but when I'm done i feel blah and unhappy. I missed my period one month and was freaking out that I might have been pregnant...it's making me insane because I'm usually so happy go lucky.....it's a relief that I'm not really crazy!

your post sounds so familiar with what i am going through right now. i just started my 9 month pack and theses last couple months have been hell for me. when i first started taking these i was fine and didnt notice many side effects, but now i get really really bad migraines at least 3 times a month and my moods are unbearable. i am lucky my boyfriend is still even with me. i dont know if i should switch or totally stop taking bc all together or keep on taking these awful pills. i have never gotten migraines in my life but once i started taking femcon, its like i can count on getting them 3 times in one month. i dont know, but i am sorry you are going through those side effects. let me know what happens and what you decide to do. good luck and hope all gets better for you somehow!

You don't know what a relief it is to know that i'm not the only one. I couldn't figure out what the problem waas at first mostly because I didn't have any problems before, but then it all started to hit me...and it's been really overwhelming. Especially how depressed I've been feeling; it has effected my relationship with my boyfriend, and because he's a man he thinks it's all in my head which under these conditions makes me even crazier!...I actually just called my GYN today and am going to get this taken care of friday. I'll keep you posted as I start a new bc. Goodluck to you!
