Contraceptive Pill question?

Question

Ive been on Microlite for 2 months now and Im finding my hair is getting more greasy easier and Im washing it more often..I never had that before I went on the pill. Is hair getting greasy more easily a side effect? Is it the same with all contraceptive pills?

Answer 1

It's because of the high levels of the hormones they give out. Try buying dry shampoo for the days inbetween washes it works a treat! You just spray on and rub in. most of the pills are the same so dont panik.

Answer 2

Yeah it's just one of many nasty side effects from taking it, they will all be the same with the exception of Dianette which slows oil production.  You probably wouldn't be prescribed Dianette though (you don't want it anyway, trust me).

Answer 3

its just because of your hormones as the pill has extra hormones in to stop the egg being relised (to thicken up the walls and mucus of your overies)
