I started on Estrostep 4 months ago. I had been on it about 6 years ago but stopped taking it when my husband and I started our family. After my second child, I was debating BC methods. Four mos ago, I went to the ER with a ruptured ovarian cyst. Tests showed additional cysts so my doctor recommended I go on the pill to prevent/control new cysts. I started Estrostep and for the first 3 months, I had really painful cramping and my period arrived a week earlier than it was supposed to. I've also noticed that my irritable bowel syndrome (which had been controlled for 8 years) has flared up. I'm having panic attacks and just general anxiety... can't help but wonder if the pill is causing some of this.
