Coming off the pill
 
I came off the pill (Cerazette) last weekend after getting the coil inserted last Monday. Coil is fab (apart from bleeding which seems to be stopping, no pain though, I'm pleased). The pill was driving me insane, I was so depressed. But now I seem worse. Since the weekend I've had really bad headaches. I haven't taken anything, trying to rest and just get through it without painkillers. But since yesterday morning I've also been getting really bad panic attacks. I'm dizzy and feel like I can't breathe. I'm guessing this is the change in hormones? I feel tense and horrible and really moody. Is this normal, coming off the pill?

I have been on several type of birth control and not had that type of reaction when coming off of them.

If you believe there is a correlation between coming off of the pill and your symptoms I would contact a doctor.

However, I probably would also just take some advil and try to do some dep breathing or something as well in the interim. But your body could be saying "Listen to me something is whacky"

Yes, it is likely ot be hormonal due to the change of hormones going around your system; either the types or the levels. This should normalise over the next few days though if it is severe/ worsens/ does not improve over the next week or so then you should get checked out by a doctor.
