Does Anyone Else Feel...loopy? Posted: 06-16-05 15:14pm
I've been taking ortho-lo for 8 months.
Recently i've been in a daze in which I
can't seem to focus; i'm a bit dizzy; and
light-headed.
I'm a little nauseous once in a while, but
I attribute that to the dizziness.
Has anyone else experienced anything like
this while taking ortho-lo or any other of
the other varieties of bc?
Thanks for your help.
Cheers.

I am on ortho-lo and I have the same
thing...Ive been on it for about 5 months
and I have asked my doctor about it and
she just said that it was minor side
effects and if anything got serious to
where I am so light headed to where I am
feeling very faint or passing out to come
back and see her.

You know, i'm feeling the exact same way.
I have been on alesse for about 5 months
now and I have felt sooo different both
mentally and physically.
About a month after I started taking the
pills, I started feeling extremely
exhausted (i still do). I also had a
diminished libido (which really sucks for
both me and my husband... We're
newlyweds). I feel literally like I could
sleep all day long. I'm also moody alot
now and my breasts are very sensitive.
At first, I didn't contribute this to the
pills; I thought that something must be
wrong with me. But the more I read, the
more i'm starting to think that it is my
pill causing all of this. I'm considering
switching...What do you guys think??

I've been on alesse for about a week now
and I do feel a bit loopy and dizzy,
almost high. It's weird. I went out last
night and didn't even want to drink
because I felt that the combination would
somehow make me feel even more drunk. I
guess it's good because on other pills
i've been angry and on alesse, I feel
giggly and happy. My breasts feel tender,
my body aches, i'm sleepy and I feel some
bloating, but I guess all pills have their
side effects. I hope my period is light
because I suffer heavy periods with severe
cramping and that's the reason why i'm on
the pill. I gain weight easily and I hope
I don't gain any on alesse.
