This took me a while to realise that my mood was being negatively affected as I also had a big change in life, getting married but weight and mood really changed. Felt unhappy a lot of the time and thought it was the changes in life but then stripping those changes away, I stiff felt sad and when I was off the pill on my period o felt so much better and more like myself.

I swapped onto Lucette after I started having spotting on Yasmin. I thought it would be an easy switch as they are the same but it was not. I started having awful low moods and suffering from cystic acne for the first time in my life. I stopped after 6 weeks. I have since found out that they use different binders in yasmin and lucette and that is what likely caused my issues.

I was put on Yasmin when I was 16 for acne which suited me, I was annoyed to be put on this but told it was the same hormones. Yasmin I had sex drive, Lucette it died and I got vaginal dryness getting worse as I got older. It's only recently as I've hit 30 that I've discovered this wasn't normal and I didn't have to put up with it, so I'm now on a journey to finding one that suits me better,
