Breast Tenderness, Mood Swings, High BP, Weight Gain. Prescribed Birth Control Lindynette. Are They Side Effects?

Hi, my doctor has prescribed the Birth Control Lindynette for me, however I am afraid of starting as I was on Minigyon before which caused massive mood swings and breast tenderness etc. I then went on Diane which caused my blood pressure to go through the roof and 30 lbs in weight gain even though I was exercising like crazy. As a result, I have been researching Lindynette in a bid to determine what the side effects are. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Hello ma'am.

Most birth control pills have the same side effects and it is only the individual-specific response that decides the different side effects that are experienced. So be adviced that all birth control pills have side effects, it is the one which suits you best with least or no side effects that should be tried and chosen for permanent use.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
