The oral contraceptive pill can deplete essential B vitamins like B6, B12, and folate — nutrients that play a huge role in energy, mood, and red blood cell production.
If you’re already low in iron (hello, heavy periods), this combo can leave you feeling extra tired and run-down. You might also notice low mood, mouth ulcers, or tingling in your hands and feet.
A good-quality B-complex supplement can help support healthy energy levels and mood balance — but always chat with your healthcare provider before starting anything new.
