i’m on the patch, it only messed with my hormones while adjusting to it but still wasn’t super bad, and has been a savior for my period (it used to last over a week and really bad cramps now its 5 days max, light, little to no cramps)

I’ve always had bad mood swings and I don’t know if it’s because I have to get it replaced soon or if something else has changed but it’s turned more into depressive/manic episodes
