Combined oral contraceptive (COC) pills are widely used by women of reproductive age,
but there is still little conclusive evidence about their mood-related side effects. This meta-analysis examined the relationship between oral contraceptive use and mood effects such as depression and anxiety. The results of the meta-analysis suggest that COCs contribute to a small but significant improvement in women’s overall moods. However, methodological challenges and inconsistencies make it difficult for researchers to establish any firm conclusions about the role COCs play in mood changes.
