"i&#039;ve been on this pill for 5 months before i really started noticing the extreme pms effects. it worked for acne pretty quickly but approaching months 4-5 i noticed i was getting really upset and angry with those around me the week of my period. i think my body grew to expect the hormones and when i wasn&#039;t taking it, i&#039;d get extremely and irrationally angry. switching to a lower dose pill or just pulling the plug on bc in general because this is really scaring me."
