Ortho Tri-cyclen Lo & Going Phsyco Every 3rd Week... Posted: 12-04-07 00:34am
I've been taking ortho tri cyclen lo
forever to regulate my flo and have never
had any problems. Ever since I had
children and been back on the same pill I
notice a pattern. The week b/f my period
I'm REALLY irritable! I cry over the
stupidest things, am very sensitive and
give people a real health forum attitude.
I'm a nice lovable person the rest of the
time but man don't mess with me the week
b/f my period. DON'T LOOK AT ME, DON'T
TALK TO ME AND DON'T TOUCH ME when it's
that week and don't expect me, you or us
to go anywhere or do anything. I'm just a
miserable and but can be grateful that
it's only the 1 week as oppose to the
whole month like other forums I've read.
It's even actually only like 3-4 days that
I'm like that. My husband even checks my
pack for a heads up. I'm sure we can just
go on living like that but feel like it's
not right. Does anyone have any advise?
I've recently talked to my dr. and asked
him to switch me to YAZ (different than
yasmin) but not so sure it was the right
move. PLEASE HELP thanks

Different pills effect people in different
ways. I know I get more emotional on my
third week of pills as well, but not to
the same extent you do.
If it really bothers you, you should
switch pills. Switching to Yaz is a good
start. Sometimes you just have to look
around until you find a pill that suits
you best. If all else fails and you feel
feeling this way, maybe you can switch to
a nonhormonal birth control method (IUD,
condoms, etc)
