Birth control for follicular anxiety
Posted: Sun Mar 31, 2024 6:53 am
I have debilitating anxiety during my follicular phase. A few days after ovulation I am back to myself and it all starts back over a few days after my period starts. Early waking at 3:00am with panic, brain fog, low mood, anxiety and headaches.
I have tried a few doses and types of compounded progesterone and nothing was working.
I saw a new OB who said I’m in Peri and need to start Junel BCP to level out my hormones to stop this. But I am terrified to try it since I’ve never been on birth control. I’m 38 and been having these symptoms for 4 years.
