Pill side effects?

Question

I started taking a new BC pill, microgestin, in April after being off microgynon (an English BC pill) for a few months. 
Me and the Hubby use condoms as well as the pill because we're not ready for children yet. I took it on time everyday, not missing a day or taking it late. We had sex once without using a condom, but I was still up to date with the pill.
My period was only extremely mild spotting and lasted 2 days shorter than normal this month. (After 1 month of taking the pill) is this just a side affect of the pill?

I've been sleeping a lot in one go, also been feeling slightly spaced out, but that could be due to over sleeping. Also I've been slightly sore vaginally and have a lack of appetite for the past couple of days. So we've been wondering if I should take a test? Of course these things are reasons to other stuff too. I'm usually pretty good at all this stuff but I worry and overthink things!

Thank you!

Answer

I've been on the pill for 6 years and my first few periods on the pill were pretty wonky. They were definitely shorter and milder after I got on the pill

Answer

I took microgestin for 6 months and had all the symptoms you listed and then some. I was always tired and extremely depressed which is not normal for me. I would get all emotional over nothing and bite people's heads off fornow reason. It killed my sex drive and was hurting my relationship. I don't call it the depression pill for nothing! It was after that experience I decided to come off the pill completely. I've noticed my sex drive is up, I'm not as tired as I was on the pill either.
