Does femodette pill cause cystitis?

Like lots of people, I was moved onto Femodette after Loestrin 20 was discontinued. It's been better than some others I've tried and overall I feel like the side effects are mild and manageable. But lately I've had more mood swings and I feel for the first time I've gained weight just around my middle (I've always been a healthy eater and never struggled with weight gain before). Maybe it's just my age (now early 30s) but I do wonder if this pill brand has an effect. I always look bloated and it's hard to shift.

Getting used to this pill was no issue really how ever I noticed my emotions are very bad and I’m now quite sensitive to everything which I never really used to be. My sex drive wasn’t affected that much until I decide to stop taking a break which is said to be ok after the 2/3rd month my sex drive had completely gone. Periods are regular and short which is a positive

I had regular lighter periods and my cramps weren't as bad on this pill. I liked having the control of taking the week break or taking the pill packs back-to-back in order to skip my period. I was moved from the combined pill to the progesterone only pill because I started getting severe migraines (without aura) and there was no other cause. The migraines stopped once I was moved to a different form of contraception. I also developed recurrent thrush, cystitis and became prone to migraines while on Femodette. I haven't been getting UTIs on my current contraception but still suffer from vaginal thrush.
