Lucette pill - Combined Pill

I switched over to this pill when the pharmacy ran out of my normal one (Brevinor) for a few months. After approx 3 months on it I noticed my mood change drastically and I just felt so down all the time. I kept getting bad headaches too and felt like my head was in a cloud, having difficulty concentrating. I decided to come off the pill rather than go back to Brevinor (I had no issues with that one) and the change in the way I feel is amazing. No more random mood swings or headaches and I feel like my emotions are my own again.

Experience coming off Lucette pill

My mood improved, I no longer felt like I was emotional for no reason and I was more in control of my emotions. It’s been 3 months and my periods are still a little irregular, but I was on the pill for 12yrs so that’s not surprising. Overall feeling so much better in myself and not having any headaches.
