QuestionI am 27 and my girl just turned 1. I have an appointment with my nurse practioner in 2 weeks. I was on one kind of control while I was nursing, and then changed when I weaned her at 10 months. The mood swings and sadness are to the point that my husband said I needed to do something about it. Thank you for your help!

Hi, I have a birth control question. I was on Levlite before I had my baby. Now I am back on it and I am having excessive mood swings and depression. I had a 2 week long period. What is the best action to take?
-----Answer-----
Hi Cora,
I would be a little concerned about having a 2 week period. The mood swings and depression could be post-partum or side effects from the birth control. Please send me a little more information on how old you are, how old is your baby and any other info that could help me advise you. Also, have you checked in with your doctor? Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
Hope to hear from you soon.

AnswerHi Cora,
I'm so glad that you are going to have an appt with your nurse practioner in 2 weeks. I hope she will be able to advise you.
Is there any reason why you don't want to have another baby? Perhaps you could consider natural family planning. Go under birth control on allexperts.com and write a question to Ramona who is the other person in my category. She will be able to give you the full information on this method and there are no side effects or risks to your body or health.
Write back and tell me what happened and what you are going to do.
