Can Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo Cause Mood Swings?

My daughter (18 years old) takes Ortho Tri-Cyclen LO tablet. Her OBGYN prescribed this for her PMS, mood swings. She missed two days. She has been having bouts of sadness. Could it be from the missed doses? I read that Progestin can cause mood swings. Is this true?

Hello,

It won’t cause mood swings.

If symptoms persist you can consult a psychiatrist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
