Since i started taking bc pills (orsythia) i noticed i am getting sick more often (viruses w/ high fevers) and i feel more moody - is this related?

Moody, yes: BC pills can make some folks moody, however, there is no association between oral contraceptives use and increased susceptibility to viral illnesses
