Does BC make you tired?

Question

I was on the shot but started feeling like complete shit. I just switched to the pill and I feel better but I've been sleeping when baby sleeps. As soon as he falls asleep I lay down, he wakes me in the morning and then we nap together, so I'm sleeping a bunch. Is this normal? Maybe my period is making me tired too? It's been so long, help! 😩

Answer

Any time you mess with your hormones, expect all kinds of changes. I'm perpetually tired on bc. And bloated. So bloated, all the time.

Answer

I haven't been on BC in a long time but I do remember sleeping in really late most days when I was. It would make sense as it produces hormones to make your body think you're pregnant. 
Might just be a combination of being exhausted and the hormones from the pill. Maybe give it a couple weeks and see how you adjust and bring it up to the doctor if it's still an issue?
