I started on Mircette about a year and a half ago. Since then, I have experienced extreme anxiety, migraines, depression (crying for no reason), numbness and tingling in my arms, hands, head, face, and neck. Before this, I was a very easy going gal. Now I get nervous around crowds, in restaurants, movie theaters, and have had to change my lifestyle so much, that I don't even go out with friends as much and feel like I am losing control of my life and body. I just saw my doctor today (she is my new dr. and did not prescribe Mircette to me). She said since I have Migraines, I shouldn't even be taking Mircette, which has a very high dose of progesterone. She said 1 in 20 women cannot take high amounts of progesterone and that she never would have given me this pill. She advised me to go off the pill for 3 months to see how I feel. Hopefully, I will feel like myself again :)

I have been on Mircette for over a year now. I was switched to Mircette b/c Loestrin made me extremely moody. Starting a few months ago I have become unpredictable. Some days I am happy, some days I am angry and paranoid. Some moments I cry for no reason, or for very little reason- over react. I have swollen breasts and my acne is getting worse after I've been on it for a while. My Dr. has presribed Yasmin - but after reading everyone's entries on Yasmin I am wondering if that will really help the moodiness and depression.
