Ethinyl estradiol / norethindrone
"Ok, so I was taking norethindrone because I was breastfeeding my son, when I decided to stop breastfeeding my Dr prescribed Microgestin 120. At first it was ok, my headaches improved and it helped decrease my milk supply faster. But once I got on the second pack I started having frequent headaches and migraines. My periods have gotten lighter, a plus, considering I'm a bleeder. (TMI sorry), and I haven't gotten pregnant. But I get bloated almost every day and I literally have no energy. I could sleep all day and still wake up like I haven't slept in a week. I am not prone to depression at all, yet since I've started this I get depressed for long stretches of time, and I get extremely irritable. I'm getting a IUD later this week because of the effects."
