My body is changing. It has been this past year what with all the physical problems I've had. While I was on the pill I rarely experienced any PMS or any mood swings partly because when I went off the regular pills to go to the placebo or non-hormone week I would usually start bleeding within 24 hrs of missing my pill. My moods took a little longer to catch up. Plus I'd know it was coming and baby myself some. I go through phases of mood swings that seem to be less related to mentration than to larger physical changes and more seasonal. Now that I'm not taking the pill anymore that whole scenario is changing. I had only my second period since going off BC recently and my mood swings along with expecting and planning for company really threw me for a loop. Hubby even commented on it and how MS had affected me. He made the connection himself (and responded accordingly) - What would I do without him.

I have low blood pressure generally, anemic and have a slightly underactive thyroid. Both of which are affected by my hormones. I find that I'm better off when I'm taking Iron for the anemia and Iodine for the thryoid. Both have helped me tremendously.
