It's way too early for me to get into detail, but basically my girlfriend can get mega pissed off at the most irrelivant things, to the point that she yells and swears and marches off. I'm getting into a routine and just letting her be now, and waiting for her to come back, which she ALWAYS does! she even admits it. even admitted she gets angry at rediculous things. most of the time she has a legitimate reason to be a little annoyed at MOST but to be so annoyed she doesn't wanna talk to me? thats just rediculous. now, these aren't relationship threatening arguments, but they do lead to some of the best sex EVAR afterwards. She's recently gone on the pill. Could this be the cause of her insaneness? maybe still growing a bit or something? I've got no idea. God I love her, but if there's something I could do to avoid her getting pissed, that'd be great. I ignored it til now coz the sex was rediculous after (lol, i can't stress that part enough) but it's a little annoying now. I have talked to her about it, and she agrees that she does overreact a lot. She is a hot headed person a lot of the time, and sometimes I gain the upper hand (booyah fool! haha) and things calm down a lot quicker, but is it just her or are a lot of females hot tempered when unbeleivably horny? lol...
Only speaking for myself, but I was incredibley irritable and moody when I was taking the pill. I couldn't take the mood swings any more, so I stopped taking it.
advise her not to take the pill, this is probably the cause of her irritation... use condoms for 2-3 weeks and see if she calms down. If not suggest theropy?
FUCK! I knew this was coming...Goddammit! I don't want her to stop the pill hmmm...Tough choice, i'll have to think about this one. lol.
How old is she and she could try a different pill. That made a big difference with me. I had to try 3 before I found the right one.
What2do: Trust me, its not that. If I'm angry at her she gets so worried she doesn't stop bugging me. BTW, we've only argued 4 or 5 times within 8 months, and never while she was on the pill. She even told me herself not to worry and that she just needs to vent sometimes. I don't think it's normal to vent that much. hah
if its really increased since taking thge pill then it probly is hormonal imballance id definately suggest trying different pills that may not affect her so drasticaly or if they all do then herbal or hormonal therapy to reballance what the pills knocked out of whack
If it is birth-control pill related: The pill has a tendency to leech the body of vital nutrients, the loss of which can lead to hormonal imbalances (often B and C-vitamin related). If I were her, I would up my dosage of vitamins B and C and start taking Evening Primrose Oil and see if things are better in two weeks. If she doesn't improve, she may just need to experiment to find the right pill for her body chemistry. Good luck to you both.
ahh very good advice lace & feet thank you yea what she said which should stabalize her moods, you might also want to concider looking into bach flower remedies as well
If you think that pill may be the cause of her bad mood, there are other methods to avoid pregnancy. Most of my female friends prefer "the shot". They like that more because they don't have to be taking pills @ any specific time. They get it once every 3 months or so. This method also contains hormones, but I have never noticed any of my friends to have bad temper because of it.
if you are sensitive enough to birth control -pills- that you get supremely grouchy from them, you should NOT go on the shot. if you are sensitive to hormones you should not go on the shot. it is only good if you dont experience many side affects from hormonal birth control... i got pms about 3 times my whole life before trying the shot, but i went completely fucking psycho 3 days around shot time and i had very few side affects on the shot compared to many other women. not saying its inherently bad, but not suggestible if the gal is sensitive to hormones particularly in a moody way
It is proven that the shot it's less likely to cause change of mood or irritability http://www.plannedparenthood.org/birth-control-pregnancy/birth-control/the-shot.htm http://www.plannedparenthood.org/birth-control-pregnancy/birth-control/the-pill.htm Either way, she should get a professional's opinion before starting any type of pregnancy prevention method.
every woman who i have talke dto and has tried both has had much stronger effects on their mood while on the shot than on the pill, myself included. i guess were all anomalies though
