Severe FATIGUE... I cannot explain enough how fatigued I am while on Orthocept. I classify it as a mix of depression too. This is awful and yet my doctor keeps telling me to 'tough it out for another month'. I have lost 5lbs this month and am always sick to my stomach. I have the weirdest forehead and eyeball pain/headaches. My legs also broke out in an itchy rash during the end of the first week and the red bumps are still here. It is just awful, people. I feel like my whole body is falling apart. I'm only taking this because my periods are excruciating. I'd rather go through the pain for 2 to 3 days than all of this for months.

I have been very tired and depressed as well. Ortho cept is my 3rd kind of pill i have taken in a year. None of the pills I can used will regualte my period! I have one to two irregular periods a month. Lo estrin was the best on me mentally, i felt really happy on that one.
