Are Stuffy Nose And Panic Attacks Caused By Stopping Birth Control Pill?

Hi, I stopped taking birth control about 4 months ago I notice since I stopped taking it my nose is very stuffy.. I never had this problem before and was wondering if this was from taking birth control. Its worst at night... also, I have been having panic attacks at night.

I am not aware of any connection between birth control and nasal congestion. I doubt that it is related. If this problem persists, you should see your family doctor, as it could be chronic sinusitis which may require antibiotics. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any more questions.
