Switching Birth Control – Effects of raised progesterone?
Im 20 and was taking Levora (low estrogen and low progestin) for 6 months – I didnt like the bloating, hair loss, irratablility, increased hunger, etc. So yesterday I started Necon 10/11 and I have slight tenderness and irratiability but other than that I'm fine for now.
My Question: the Necon has twice the amount of progesterone than the Levora but the SAME amount of estrogen. I've been searching the web and journals but cannot find out: What effects does raising progesterone levels have on a female?
Scholarly info only please, thanks!

If I remember correctly, progestrogen controls things like irritability and bleeding. People who get breakthrough bleeding often benefit from a pill with more progestrogen.
