Birth Control
"I started taking Orsythia about four months ago. This was my first experience on birth control, so I was incredibly apprehensive about the side-effect, namely: migraines, birth control, and  mood swings. The first two months, everything went so smooth.  These last two months I have been shocked with the adverse effects I&#039;ve experienced. I have had issues with water-weight gain, which fluctuates between 3 and 5 pounds, and nausea. But, the biggest issue I have found with this medication would be the anxiety and depression. At first, I chalked it up to stress. However, people around me noticed that I have not been myself. I&#039;ve felt edgy, irritable, overwhelmed, confused, and sensitive. I&#039;m finishing this month, then switching to a new pill."
