Noriday pill - Prog-only Pill

After coming off this particular mini pill and in fact deciding to move away from hormonal contraception , I have since realised how much of an affect it was having on my mental health. I became very depressed and felt out of control of my own emotions. Moving away from the mini-pill was the best decision I ever made.

Experience coming off Noriday pill

In the long run a Significant improvement in mental health. In the short term it took a number of months to be fully back to ‘normal’. I could feel my body changing as the effect of the hormones wore off.
