A while back I was using Tri-cyclen Lo, and became really depressed so I stopped using it.
I've been to the doctors since, and she prescribed me the original Tri-cyclen. I told her that during the time I was on the Lo, I was severely depressed and asked her if it could have has something to do with the birth control, she said no.
When I went to get the original Tri-cyclen, I asked the pharmasist about depression and birth control, and he said he's never heard of that happening to anyone.
YET, I opened the pack of birth control pills today and read the side affects, and it says although extremely uncommon, severe depression can occur... then (haha) it says, NOTIFY YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY IF THIS OCCURS.
I am completely convinced that this depression came from the birth control pills - It was no normal blues, it was extreme.
I don't really know what to do - should I try these other pills? Or question the doctor (I'd feel rude doing that).
Any advice is appreciated!!
