Contraceptive pill and insomnia
Posted , 2 users are following.
Has anyone found that which contraceptive pill you are on effects your insomnia? Does anyone have any suggestions of ones which effect their sleep less than others? I find I definitely have a pattern of my sleep getting worse as I get down to the last few days of my pill packet before taking a break.

Hi. It can be difficult to 'pinpoint' a particular pill that would ease insomnia as they are all different & everybody reacts differently. It is often 'trial & error with the pill. I cant say for sure of course but the odds are it's just your general hormones that are causing your insomnia as this is a very common problem in menopausal women. (trust me i know). I don't know how old you are so i'm not saying you're in the menopausal phase but if it's affecting your sleep maybe talk with your doctor about switching to another pill. But if it's only affecting you for a few days in the month it may not be a big problem. Good luck.
