Prozac And the Pill
Posted: 08-04-05 14:39pm

Is anyone here on prozac (or some other ssri) and the pill? My Dr. Told me that the prozac may enhance the side effects of estrogen (since the ssri slows the break-down of estrogen in the body). I haven't noticed anything, but when I forgot to take my daily dose of prozac one morning, I had some break through bleeding that night (even though I was taking my bcp perfectly!). I was wondering if the two could be related or if anyone else has had a similar experience. Thanks!
