Will a contraceptive pill regulate my hormones/moods etc?

[EmiliaRose2355]

I'm going on the pill not to prevent pregnancy, but simply to try and regulate my cycles.

Recently, I've broken out in acne, my breasts have been extremely sore for about 2-3 weeks of the month, every month... My hormones have been making me overly emotional, my hairs became extremely oily and my periods have been excruciating and unbearable.

My doctors decided to put me on a pill because my cycle is genuinely affecting aspects of my life. Do you reckon it will sort things out for me?

For most people it does. You just have to remember to take it at the same time everyday. If you're not sequally active it's not as big of a deal. But the pill should help. My periods used to be so bad I couldn't move and would just cry, and the flow was ridiculous. Sorry TMI but after I got on the pill my acne got better and so did the symptoms that come with periods such as cramps, my periods were more regular and not so heavy. Hopefully it works out for you!

It can definitely have impacts on your cycle, moods, breast size, hair, complexion, and such. But the effects may be positive or negative, depending on the particular brand of pill and the particular woman. If things get worse or simply don't improve after two or three months, don't be afraid to ask your doctor to try you on a different formulation.

Hey, i had a couple friends do this. She had bad acne on her face and she just started to take the pill, and it has been already reduced. Another friend did it to regulate her cycle better, without it she has it at random times. It should help. However I am not a girl so i can't tell you for sure but based of my friends/exs it should help a lot.
