Anyone have weird symptoms from stopping the pill?

Question

If so, how long did they last?

Answer

I had a larger appetite for a while and gained about 10 pounds. I've lost the weight and hunger has subsided. Periods were instantly shorter, lighter & less painful. Hoping it stays that way. I was on the pill for 12 years.

Answer

Crazy mood swings, and was so hungry all the time. Only lasted a couple weeks, I've mellowed out and have lost weight since stop taking the pill...

I went off bc about 6 months ago after being on it for 11 years... I still get insane mood swings, and cramps before/during my period as well as food cravings.

Answer

Answer

I stopped my bc pills about 6 weeks ago after almost 17 years on them and have been losing my hair like crazy since then. It's finally starting to slow down but it's been a rough month I think I have lost about 1/3 of my hair (thickness wise).

I had TERRIBLE mood swings! Angry for no reason. It lasted for about 2 months. I was on it for over 10 years
