Birth Control Pill. Irritated, Grumpy. Taking Vyvance. What Is Going On?

I started taking vyvance 40 mg 3 weeks ago. I have loved what it has done for me. My husband noticed a huge change right away. Yesterday I took my first blank pill in my birth control pills. Today I don't feel like the vyvance is working at all. I am very irritable and grumpy. Is this a coincidence or does vyvance effect woman during monthly cycle?

Hi and thanks for the query,

Birth control pills rarely have as side effects, an actual change in the mood of the women. Although observed in a very small percentage of women, other causes of change in the mood should be sought first before considering the pill. Pills are also hormones and could have similar effects as the natural hormones when certain changes do occur.

IT S DIFFICULT TO ASCRIBE THIS THE PILL, considering you just started experiencing 3 weeks after using the pill, it might really be difficult associating the two. However, you might consult your gynecologist for help.

Thanks and best regards,

Bain LE, MD.
