Progestogen-only / Mini pill and decreased sex drive

I thought I would try this pill because it had some fairly good reviews and I cannot tolerate estrogen. The first week of taking this I had racing thoughts, felt extremely panicky and did not sleep well.. this settled down so I carried on. I strarted spotting a few days before the placebo pills which turned into light bleeding that lasted all the way through to pack 3 !!! It’s a great contraceptive because you can never have sex! My mood has been terrible. I have been tearful, very cranky and irritable at things that would never usually bother me. I have felt quite dizzy at times and almost “unreal.” I have experienced panic like never before. This pill is making me feel like I am going crazy. I’m stopping taking it as I would rather have period pains than feel like this! Awful .

Overall, Slynd has been better for me than any other hormonal contraceptive ive tried befofe. I do get some spotting every once in a while and my sex drive is a little bit lower (compared to when i used to ovulate) but its been good. I have no period pain and no severe mood swings which was my goal. Have started to get some minimal acne on my forehead and chin now that im 5 months into it, fingers crossed it will settle down soon. Nothing major though!

Using Sltnd for Endo rather than a contraceptive, this is my second month. First month I had breakthrough bleeding for 23 days but no period this month. Not had awful ovulation pain like before and my pain has reduced somewhat. Headaches are a bit of a pain as I am not a headachy person usually. Had a very stressful two months so not sure if my mood is stress or the pill. It has affected my sex drive but this can be affected alot by pain so we manage that anyway. So far I feel like it's helped with pain definitely need to give it longer. I don't take the placebo pills until month 3 so I take slynd constantly till month 3 as doctor recommended to do so.
