Birth Control
"I&#039;m 40 with no children and started Nora-Be after 6+ years of no BC. I&#039;m not allowed estrogen BC due to previous blood clots. Started this pill a week ago and am a little surprised by what I believe are side effects. Appetite loss and my mood is VERY elevated...I feel borderline hyper at times. I notice that things which used to upset me or get on my nerves don&#039;t nearly as much now. Overall a good thing but sometimes you need that balance to be able to understand and calibrate your overall well being. But my main concern is I&#039;ve noticed I&#039;m mentally scattered. It&#039;s like herding cats in my brain sometimes. I am hoping this subsides. No physical side effects yet- spotting or bloating-which I was expecting. We&#039;ll see."
