Mood swings are a common side effect of birth control pills so they’re most likely the reason.

Well the low dose ones are supposed to not cause as bad of mood swings as the full strength ones, but yes it could most certainly be causing mood swings it alters your hormones. Talk to your doctor. There are tons of different bc pills out there and there is probably one that won’t cause this for you. I had the same problem with orthcept. But now I am on Seasonale and don’t have it anymore.
