I had my first ever pelvic exam today. I decided to make an appointment to talk to a doctor about my severe PMS symptoms. The doctor was less concerned with the severity of my symptoms and more worried about me being a (according to her) very heavy bleeder. She prescribed me Loestrin 24Fe. I'm excited to get started and see if this will help me.

Does anyone know what "starting method" is better in terms of side effects? I was thinking about doing day-1 method so that I wouldn't have to use a separate birthcontrol method for a week, but only if it doesn't increase the starting side effects. My other option is Sunday start.

I switched pill brands a few months ago from Loestrin 24 fe to ortho tricyclin lo. Around the time that I switched I started experiencing crippling anxiety. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is a possible side effect or if anyone has had experience with this? Of course there is the more likely scenario that recent events in my life have triggered the anxiety and its just a coincidence that I started a new pill around that time. It would be good news if it were just the pill though. I have already scheduled an appointment to talk with my doctor but she won't be able to see me for a week for various reasons.

When I was on Loestrin I was very depressed and had no sex drive at all. We waited 6 months before switching and I only convinced her to switch when I started bleeding through. I knew to expect a different set of side effects but this anxiety snuck up on me. I'm hesitant to say its definitely the pill as I've always had a low level of anxiety but it's so much worse now. I have to struggle to open my email because I'm anxious I might have missed something important. I have a feeling she's just going to throw an anti-anxiety or antidepressant at me.
