It's been already 20 months since my life has changed. For the worse.
January 2010 - birth of a perfect baby girl, now aged 3
August 2011 - first birth control pills, 3 pills in 3 days of Jasmine, with serious side effects: diarrhea, vomiting, chills. After third day of taking the pill i stopped.
But since then: depression, anxiety, palpitations, chills, fatigue, weakness, internal tremors, loss of sex drive. Also, the menstruation got lighter, bleeding 2 days and then spotting, instead of bleeding 5-7 days.
Tracking the moods, i came across a pattern linked to menstrual cycle. Feeling worst after ovulation and until the period stops. So i pretty much have one good (better, really) week of month: days 7-14 of each menstrual cycle. At the beginning, things were very bad, now it seems better, although spring brought anxiety and palpitations back, after almost disappearing in the winter. Last year i lost 7 kg (14 lbs) in 7 months, without doing anything about it. Got blood work done, all fine. Any ideas?
Thank you so much, i am at a loss as to what it is that changed my life all of a sudden.
