Hey
i started a new pill two weeks ago-microgynon and im not sure whether its just coincidental but my appetite has grown like you wouldnt believe. There has just been no filling me and i am not usually like this. Feel really bloated but not full after meals. Is it too soon for the pill to have this effect??i think i have put on about 3lb but maybe more.
Can anyone offer me any advice please x

I became moody and emotional and ate everything that wasnt nailed down.
My GP basically told me I was just greedy and that it was nothing to do with the pill, but I know it was, so after nearly a fight with the nurse I got put back on logynon.
no not at all. Mine was about the same really. I assume they have just given you a month's prescription so you can go back and discuss it and have a check up?
I dont know why I am saying that, as I was given 3 months straight off!
Could well be down to it, sounds like you will have to exercise lots of self control until you find something more suited to you.
I don't like it at all, I've had a perm headache since I started it, I'm going to ask to get it changed when I'm at the nurse on the 13th
I decided the only thing i could do was come off it for a while and did so for about 10 months during which time I felt bloated and suffered very heavy periods but hardly any night sweats. I got to a point where I wanted to 'control' my periods a bit more and went back on the pill in december and guess what I am now sufferring the night sweats again!!!!
Has anyone else had this problem? I really don't know what to do although I guess I'll be back at the doctors asking the same questions!!!
Well I was at the nurse on MOnday and I told her but she wanted to try and treat my chest problem first!! so speaking with her about it this week! Just had my week free and had hardly any bleeding this time and no pain so god knows but I def don't like it and gonna get it changed!
