Avatar f tn The most serious effect from high doses is that estrogen (the active ingredient in Incurin) may have a tumour-promoting effect in target organs with estrogen receptors, such as the mammary gland. The most dangerous effect of PPA (phenylpropanolamine) is hypertension.
Avatar n tn Are there any side effects with this disease other than the outbreaks? I'm having an issue with vaginal lubrication and I was diagnosed 3 years ago. And I'm wondering if this virus could be the reason.
Avatar n tn What I found interesting, was that after looking at my favorite top 5, increase and decrease in libido was not even mentioned although they were quick to note side effects such as depression, vaginal dryness and legathy. Even the official website for Arimidex itself and the "largest known site for the most comprehensive list of side effects" doesn't touch libido...at all. Hmmm However, women taking this medication tell a different story.
1178023 tn?1293733628 All medications have side effects of some kind, it comes down to what is worse what the medicine is treating or the side effects. I would talk to your doctor and see what he says and his stats for progesterone.
Avatar m tn re already dealing with thryoid issues, as the estrogen levels are still affected by the thryoid and vice versa, whether male or female. It is estrogen in particular that soy affects in a huge way. Dr. Mercola explains more thoroughly and better than I can even begin to repeat why the traditionally fermented soy products are the only soy products that are even safe to consume.
Avatar f tn If you go to chemocare.com you can read all the side effects of Tamoxifen. What you mention are all listed there. The weight gain no doubt is due to fluid retention which is one of the side effects. You might discuss changing drugs with your Oncologist as there are others available but keep in mind that they all have similar side effecfts even though you mjight not experience them to the same degree. Regards .....
Avatar f tn I am a 45 year old women who has been very active. I ran two half marathans in the past year. The most recent in May. In July I was diagnosed with DVT and PE. I am on Coumadin. I am having side effects which some doctors don't really recognize as side effect. However, there are many instances on discusson boards of people with the same side effects. They are headache, heart palpatations, light headedness, depression, not felling well, fatige.
282955 tn?1394730951 I had my first round of clomid this month in January-08 and I only had a few side of effects like being dizzy,had hot flashes @ night mild though,felt bloated a little pain in the pelivc area,and basically thats it , but be glad you do not have side effects well good luck and god bless.
216278 tn?1308861082 m on my third round of femara, and had no side effects the first month, but the second and third cycle, I did have a headache on and off for a couple of days. No tummy aches or breaking out, though. BUT, since you took such a high dose all at once, it wouldn't surprise me if the stimulation of the ovaries is causing some crampiness. Like dnikki said, you could always call your doctor and check. Best of luck!
Avatar f tn Hi! Can you guys help me out? I had a failed ivf cycle recently and am about to do a frozen cycle. The doctor put me on estrace to thicken my uterus. Today i got a phone call to up it to 6mg am and pm.>>>which seems like a lot! Anyone know the side effects of estrace or what you have experienced?
Avatar m tn i am a guy. but i there's a small lump in my right areola(??) sometimes it's painful when touch. do men get breast cancer? ... will the lump eventually disappear or need to be surgically removed. i appreciate any professional opinions.
Avatar m tn s known to have sexual side effects. This may include adjusting or changing your current medications or starting treatment for previously undetected conditions. Estrogen therapy. Systemic estrogen therapy — by pill, patch or gel — can have a positive effect on brain function and mood factors that affect sexual response.
503702 tn?1276176714 Still bad side effects. My chiropractor suggested having my estrogen blood levels tested, and trying an experiment. Take Aromasin every other day for a few months, and see if it lowers my blood estrogen level enough. My blood estrogen level (estradiol) is now a *negative* 20! No nausea, just some neuropathy, swelling and stiffness, mostly in the morning. I can handle this. I plan on complaining about the side effects for the rest of my long, healthy life!
Avatar n tn Two years into five year tamoxifen stretch and I am very uncomfortable with night sweats, hot flashes, and mood swings, I understand there are antidepressants that help side effects but am really considering stopping the tamoxifen altogether because I have no estrogen to fight off.
Avatar f tn Hopefully some other members here can suggest an AD with little to no sexual side effects. I think Wellbutrin may be one of them. If you have anxiety along with your depression you might not want to take this med as it can make it worse because it is more stimulating. Or you may need to add an antianxiety med with it. Take care.
Avatar n tn Is there a clinical study and shows femara vs placebo rather than femara vs tamoifen (novartis trial)? What is the general recommendation? Can you stop femara if side effects become a quality of life issue? Thank you.
Avatar f tn I think up to 12 weeks. Keep in mind that they have to disclose possible side effects. All these fertility drugs have crazy side effects......why is it that this is the only one noticed.??
Avatar m tn The fact is that Diphereline is not so well documented when it comes to side effects. Many of those which are known and listed for Lupron are not properly presented by the company selling this particular product. Our gynecologist did not inform us either on the side effects. Now she developed dry and painful eyes, dry mouth and joint pain. Had we known the full list of side effects we would certainly not do it. My question is: can we do anything to get rid of the effects of Lupon sooner.
1129232 tn?1360800358 anyone taking progesterone suppositiories get side effects? i was fine the first couple of days but now i'm feeling lethargic, extreme fatigue, always hungry and a little bit of off and on nausea. AT first i was thinking - could this be pregnancy symptoms already but i think it's probably from the progesterone. UGH! this is awful.
Avatar m tn Should be very easy if you've only been on it such a short time. If it's only been a few days, keep in mind the side effects start immediately but the effects usually take a few weeks to kick in. This is a good drug to quit early if you believe it isn't for you, as it is one of the most difficult to stop taking. Talk to your psychiatrist before you stop, but you can research weaning protocols in books and articles.
Avatar n tn Oh well I guess I have no other option. Any thoughts? How bad are your side effects and do they disappear eventually?
1219499 tn?1410749730 I was also ovulating but she wanted to put me on Clomid for other reasons. I am also taking Estrogen in the pill form and she also wants to put me on Progesterone suppositories. I might just pass on the suppositories and instead do the weekly Progesterone shot when I get my BFP. My first cycle I had all the side effects - headaches (all day, every day), hot flashes, mood swings, and dry CM. This month my body must have been prepared and I havent had any side effects.
1357161 tn?1295553740 I have two 19 month old Siberian Huskies and they are both house broken and crated when no one is home. The one will urinate in her crate every time she is in there, even if it is only for a couple hours. She will go all day in the house without going out and never an accident, but will always urinate in her crate. They are crate side by side so it's not like she is alone. Any suggestions on what I can try? I get so tired of washing her bedding day after day.
