Have just stopped taking the BC pill after 1 and a half years of taking it. I used to skip my periods when taking it and only ever had a period about every 4 months. I have many current health problems such as adrenal exhaustion and possible copper toxicity which is the reason why I decided to try going off the pill, because apparently the estrogen in the pill can increase the copper in your body. Anyway since stopping the pill one week ago I have been exhausted. My energy levels were pretty low already because of the adrenal exhaustion but now I can hardly get off the couch. I am getting some hot flushes and headaches as well since stopping the pill.

Is this normal?

How long can i expect these side effects to last?

When will I feel normal again?

Thanks

Hi there, sorry to hear you're not feeling great. I have also come off the pill 6 weeks ago and since then I've have just wanted to sleep and suffered with headaches and dizzy spells, tummy cramps etc. Hopefully when its out of our systems we will feel better. :)
