I started taking Ortho-cept when I was 17 i am not 26. My body I think is not doing well on this pill anymore. I am depressed, lossing my hair, have no sex drive at all! I don't even know why I am on the pill if I am not wanting sex and my mood swings are bad. I am mad and pissed off all the time. The only good thing is I did not get pregnant once.

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.
