My girlfriend has told me lots about you and lately has got me thinking about the pill. I’ve been on the pill for 8 years now, and noticing more and more lately my moods are snappy… And it’s hurting my marriage with my husband. Now I’m not 100% it has to do with the pill (monofeme) but it could be, and I hope it is(because I hope I’m not like this the rest of my life), my question is: I’ve been reading a lot online that going off the pill makes mood swings WORSE… Would you say this is true? I’m so confused what to do 🙁

Thanks, Kelly.

I was on the pill for many years until I was unhappy with the side effects. The thought of producing a human is 110% something I do not want to happen. So I instead had implanon and after 2 years was also happy with this. I now have Mirena. I understand your stance on the pill, just wanted to know your thoughts on Mirena ( I am so sorry if you have spoken at length about this already). I have spoken to my doctor about giving my body a break but he just said if i did not want to procreate do not chance it. I feel like I am doing the wrong thing for my health but the scare of a baby seems to be winning that little bit more at the moment.

Thanks, have done so and looking forward to learning more 🙂

Hi there, I loved this article. I would love to know more about natural solutions as I don’t agree with pumping my body with this ‘pill’ to sort me out!!

So refreshing to hear this from a young woman! Good on you – I feel encouraged by your words x

Well done to you for following your intuition. I agree, there is no easy road sometimes, but it is all part of the journey. I commend you. x

There’s always a reason why our bodies do ‘things’ – more to the point, I think exploring what this is, is the only way we can truly fix something long term. But we all need to come back to what works for us individually I agree x

Kudos to you – well done x

such a pleasure x
