Was Taking Contraception Pill Changed To Rigevodon. Mood Swings, Side Affects. Recommendations?

Hi I have been on the contraception pill for over 5 years and last year was changed to rigevodon, my body doesn't seem to agree with it and its making me have awful side effects. Really bad mood swings. Paranoia, worried all the time and getting angry. I'm never like this usually it feels like its the pill that's made me like this, what can I do? I enjoyed taking the pill before I was switched over and ever since I've been really moody, my partner has noticed and I don't want it to effect my relationship as I'm getting worried and paranoid he's out doing things and I get jealous and emotional over nothing

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms that you are having can be due to change in the birth control pill that you were taking earlier. It takes some time - 1-2 cycles for all the symptoms to gradually settle down.
