Estrogen withdrawal
Common Questions and Answers about Estrogen withdrawal
cenestin
she said the reason why she put me on birth control instead of regular estrogen is because i havent had a period in a year and she wants the withdrawal bleed. she said that with estrogen I will eventually have a withdrawal bleed but it will not induce it. She said if she were to put me on estrogen I would have to take progesterone simultaneously. So I guess i will finish the last patch that i am wearing i take it off on Monday and hopefully i will have the withdrawal bleed.
m not a doctor and I have no experience with medicine, but from what I have researched online about the hormones that control your menstrual cycle, and from my experience taking birth control, you could be having symptoms of estrogen dominance as withdrawal from taking birth control. It is easy enough from the North American diet for the body to produce more estrogen than it does progesterone. Both of these hormones need to be in your body for you to get your period.
The period was light, but I had just had my normal flow two weeks prior while just taking the estrogen. Also, after bleeding from progesterone withdrawal, will I ovulate normally as if I had just had a regular period. I appreciate any answers anyone can provide. Thanks!
I am a 67 year old female using estrogen patches for many years. And I never get this kind of night sweat. Do you know if these symptoms will last awhile?
I even called the Estrogen patch company thinking may be there was a problem with them. They sent me some new ones.
Thanks. Hope you can help.
suggested that she discontinue her birth control pill which contains 35 mcg. estrogen. The head aches occur during her period and the pill days,too. Is there a birth control pill that does not cause migrains? She was on the 25 mcg "low" estrogen pill, but she had an ovarian cyst.

2 weeks ago my hairdresser informed me of much hairloss at my temples and around hairline, but more thyroid type loss pattern than estrogen. So my Dr. is pulling me off cytomel, I had already been reduced to 5cg qid, AM temp 97.2-97.7, dependding on how late I sleep, the later the higher. I have just gotten to the 2/day level.
I'm wondering are there any w/d symptoms people have experience from coming off of cytomel?
The estrogen is kicking in with a vengeance and my poor husband has to just grin and bare it all. I think after this pregnancy he will think carefully before attempting to make number 2.
Are you experiencing the same?
All I know is that after you get pregnant you can use an ovulation monitor as a pregnancy test since it can tell an increase just like when you ovulate. I'm not sure how soon after ovulation it works though.
Does anyone happen to know if there has been a connection with too much estrogen causing more neuropathy pain?? Anyone experience the onset of neuropathy after a hysterectomy? I would appreciate any info.
Endometriosis feed off estrogen. The estrogen-dependent endo lesions, if left unchecked, will begin to create their own estrogen.
I do want to clarify that the pill or any other form of HRT does not prevent the Endometriosis from growing. The reason it is used is to help stop the pain by stopping the periods.
I was on a low dose BCP (Marvelon) for 8 yrs continuously and did help with my pain. However it still continued to grow even after deep excision surgery.
Hi there, I recently had my period, and the day before I came on I had unprotected sex and the day after I came off I also had sex. We use the withdrawal method and I finished my period on the11th April and 11 days later I started light spotting which started of light pink, it then changed to brown and now it's a dark brown black?!
My doctor told me it was due to estrogen withdrawal because your hormones become way less present around that time.
Thankx for the answers . My period has finally gone off . I guess it wasn't a miscarriage , just how my body reacted to it .. probably like ajccwm said an estrogen withdrawal but I don't think I'm putting another ring in . My boyfriend doesn't want me on any BC . He actually wants a baby . :)
But yeah I went through almost two packs of pads too. :/ I was extremely miserable !
I have however been reading alot about withdrawal because my daughter is weaning off an AD (Lexapro). You might try supplements such as Omega 3 fish oil, magnesium and Vit C.
I have peppermint tea for nausea, estrogen pm to help me sleep, imodium for diarrhea and 0.5 mg zanax for aniety. Please give me some advice.
If it is only at mid cycle with just spotting then it could be just estrogen withdrawal bleeding. However if it is more than that I would be concerned that there may be something wrong with your hormones or with the endometrium ie the uterine cavity. You can be tested for hormone problem by doing a mid luteal progesterone level and you can be tested for uterine problem with a saline infusion sonohysterogram.
m assuming from skipping my period) and then it stopped. I decided to wait for my withdrawal bleeding and last pill was on the 15th and my period started on the 19th and my 7th day was on the 22nd. I started my new pack of pills on the 23rd of Saturday and I'm on my 3rd pill from my new pack, but my period has not stopped. Im not having heavy periods, but when I wipe, I'm still getting sticky fresh looking blood. Why wont my bc stop my period?
