Is Anyone Else Emotional/very Sensitive On Marvellon Combined Pill??
6 Answers
I've been on the combined pill for just over 10 years now. Started on Microgynon but it made me break out in really bad acne. I then went on Dianette (which cleared it right up) but got taken off of that due to increased risk of blood clot (loved that pill, no problems whatsoever).
I'd say I've been on Marvellon now for maybe 7 years and until recently I never really thought twice about its effects (and really don't think it's been this bad until the last year...not sure if it can all of a sudden change though). I'm starting to wonder now if some of my less attractive traits may be due to this pill:
Feelings of insecurity & needing constant reassurance
Very very very sensitive and causing arguments out of very little due to being emotional
Often feeling very low/minor states of depression
I started wondering last night if my pill was to blame after I started ANOTHER argument with my fiance over something so silly/small and had a google to find other people felt Marvellon affected their moods.
What I'm curious about is if other people have found themselves to be overly emotional/sensitive or if it's just moodiness they've experienced?
I'm going to have to come off this pill anyway as my migraines are becoming unbearable and my BP has started to rise! eek!
Would love to find out if I will still be like this afterwards or if this could be down to my pill?
Responses would be so greatly appreciated as I'd love to warn my fiance that after the honeymoon when I come off this pill (july), I'll be a brighter, less argumentative woman!

I've never used Marvellon, but a friend has. She had no problems like you describe but she did become pregnant while on it. I don't know how scrupulous she was with its use, though.
I wouldn't have thought it would suddenly cause you the problems you mention after 7 years of no trouble. How old are you approximately? Could it be menopause?

Yes 'warn' was not the right word - should have been 'inform' - thanks Old_Geezer!
Thanks for the answer Cloverjo - I am only 27 so I highly doubt it could be menopause. I'm unsure if I have had 'no trouble' the rest of the time or if I just haven't put 2 and 2 together until recently. It's very difficult to gauge. I just know it's been noticeable recently.

I was on marvellon a number of years ago now and I got quite bad headaches/migraines which resulted in a haemoplegic migraine (I think that is spelt correctly) a brain bleed or a stroke are more common names. I was then told that I should have stopped taking it when the migraines started.
After this no doctors would prescribe oral contraceptives/HRT to me.
