As some may know I recently tried Yaz then Qlaira, I had to stop both of them due to my mood plummeting  I was on Yaz for 2 weeks then Qlaira for 3, I stopped the Qlaira just over a week ago. My mood is still really quite low and it's beginning to scare me a bit  do you think it could be just down to what my body's been through with the 2 pills?

   I would ring a Pharmacist in the morning.

hi, i had to stop the progesteone tablets in the elleste duet.. same thing , did not suit me at all.. very low mood and anxiety.. id say took a couple of weeks to get back to an even keel x

With Christmas just around the corner this is the last thing I need  not looking forward to it at all at the moment, can't even be bothered putting the decs up 
I've had a horrible strange headache for what seems like forever, weak and tired, just not right but can't put my finger on what's wrong  I hope it's just remnants of both pills leaving my system or that I've got a bug or something? Throats been feeling a bit iffy on and off and my eyes feel stingy  whatever it is just hope it buggers off very soon

Are you sure it is not a bug? I have now had it for ten days and initial symptoms sound similar - headache, fatigue, miserable. It then turned into a stinking cold, cough and ear ache. Most of my friends and family now have it 

Even if it is a bug, the hormonal shift can't be helping. My doctor said seven days for it to leavethecsystem, but I think it took nearer ten when I stopped Marvelon. when will you start the new hrt? X

I did think it was a water infection but that came back clear? I don't have a temp? my ears have felt like they're blocked, like when your going up a hill  Maybe it is a bug

I don't know if I should wait a little while to have the Mirena? It won't be until a week maybe 2 by the time the appt comes through anyway.

Sorry you have it too Briony, it's awful isn't it?

There is a bug going round that sounds very like that.  It takes so long to recover that you think you never will, but you do!

[Chi chi]

Well the headache seems to be getting better, thank god. I had a good day yesterday, really quite upbeat with no anxiety, unfortunately today it's been back with its friend low mood too 
I've been using 2 pumps of oestrogel but wondering if I should increase, just so fed up of the ups and downs, well mainly downs 

[SadLynda]

sorry to see you are still no better

Hi Chi chi I don't know if this is the same  but when I was using a Conti patch and the side-effects got to much, the day after I stopped it I felt immediate relief, although of course  the progesterone  might still have been somewhere in my system for a few days. On the other hand I've just finished a course of Provera which is a tablet and 48 hours later I can still feel some of the side-effects. Maybe via patch leaves your body more quickly - I don't know
