A member asked:
Is sleepiness a side effect of trinessa (norgestimate and ethinyl estradiol) ocp? i am always sleepy during the evening.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : Birth control pills do not cause sleepiness. There are many many causes of sleepiness so i would look for other more likely causes. Diet, exercise, sleep habits, night time snoring, obesity and your diet could be contributing.
