[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 418671, member: 6705"] Just an FYI... Most hormonal birth control can worsen depression. From personal experience, I can say this: the lowest possible dose of hormones that works is the best. Usually they are an estrogen/progesterone combination. When the body slows down making its own estrogen, the cramps and heavy periods get better - but the depression creeps in (which is loads of fun when on IVF medications). Seriously - do not back down. And keep her medications, don't trust her to take them. AND, don't let her walk away - Onyxx would cheek her medications then spit them out when we were not looking. husband devised a great tactic - making her drink a FULL glass of water with them - she got at least some of the effects that way. Then she started flat refusing, and there's not much we can do. [/QUOTE]
