Depression after stopping birth control
| Thu, 01-28-2010 - 7:24pm |
I went off birth control pills at the beginning of the year, after being on them for 15 years. While my period was right on time and fairly normal, I feel much more depressed! I don't know if it's just the PMS symptoms worsening or depression. I also have a very flat affect and have a cloudy mind. Any thoughts? Suggestions? Thank you.

mlw - I also took bc pills long ago but I didn't notice any particular changes in mood when I went off them and had a tubal ligation when I was in my thirties.
