I'm worried about my moods

The majority of women have mood swings from time to time. Mood swings, and feeling irritable are, to a certain extent, absolutely normal. Often, they're related to how you feel about your appearance - particularly at certain times of the month. Usually, they're classed together with other discomforts such as headaches, stomach cramps and water retention under the heading of pre-menstrual symptoms.

Today's low dose oral contraceptives can do a lot to counteract the symptoms of pre-menstrual tension and in many cases can overcome them altogether.^2,3

The pill containing drospirenone , the progestogen developed to be closest to the body's own progesterone, has been shown to have a beneficial effect on mood.^2,3
