I start 3 years ago on the levest pill, and since then I have put on lots of weight and tried to lose it but it hasn’t gone. I only started the pill to regulate my periods, which it has only made them more heavier. I want to change but I don’t know what to?

this pill has enhanced my emotions a lot, for example something that would normally just bother me a little can make me extremely upset, angry and panicky which causes me to snap which is very unlike me. only problem is every time i have started taking it again after my period it has made me sick during the night, not sure if that means i should change the pill i’m on. i have gained weight but not dramatically, mainly gone to my hips bum and thighs and also breasts have got bigger so not all that bad. however very effective, no irregular or missed periods.

While on the combined pill my mood were the main issue. I would have days of crying over something so small. I would cry at anything and everything. I became more anxious and didn’t want to leave the house. I was so tearful that at times I would self sabotage. I would wanna do something with my partner but would snap and get angry and end up crying and even began feeling suicidal.
