846905 tn?1258817444 I too have gained a lot of weight, not losing weight while going to the gym and starting diet, and i haven't been able to get pregnant in 2 years other than that miscarriage. My acne is like yours, it will not go away and i am getting boils in my pubic area as well, and I had never had that before. Let me know what you find out... I have an appointment on Monday with a gynocologist and will see if that has anything to do with any of this.
Avatar f tn My first experience with sever weight loss was due to the same circumstances. Anorexia was a rare diagnosis, and I did not have panic attacks because I was prescribed Valium. That is when my period stopped for a year. I understand you are probably not experiencing menopause, but I wonder if your weight is within a normal range now. If you are still eating a healthy diet and in control of your weight, make sure you are eating enough to keep the reproductive system happy.

Avatar f tn But this months cycle was worse, plus for about 5-6 days I was waking up after only 5-6 hours of sleep, and being jittery and unable to go back to sleep, the day my period started I woke up and my heart was racing, lasted for about 5 minutes or so. And if I force myself to stay up I am very fatigued that day. Plus I have been feeling worsening fatigue over the last couple months as well, I feel like my sleep is not refreshing.
Avatar n tn Really depends on individual, from my experience after TT, hormone imbalance never affect my weight, my weight always stayed consistent. But for many others, weight can be an issue, some gaining to much, while others experience rapid weight loss. I know for a fact hormone imbalance can cause weight issues, but not sure the other way around.

Avatar n tn He has significant weight loss over the past year. His weight loss, leg cramps(sometimes even hand cramp), eye problems, are all caused by these hormone imbalance? Is there any convenient over-the-counter **************? Thanks in advance for your help.
Avatar f tn I could stand to gain the weight so no problem there, it is the distribution of the weight gain that seems odd to me. Most the weight gain has been in my lower abdomen, lower back and buttocks. My buttocks have even developed cellulite which I know is uncommon in men. Do you think I have developed a hormone imbalance since quitting smoking cigarettes?
Avatar n tn Upon their removal, levels of these hormones drop dramatically. An imbalance between the levels of androgens (male hormone) and estrogen comes into play. Besides, there is a slowing of metabolism and and water retention. If you are on some hormones, you may ask your doctor to customize your hormonal treatment. You can also try a regular exercise regimen and minimize carbohydrate intake and increase protein intake. You will be able to notice any changes only after a certain time.
Avatar n tn I started my periods when I was 9 and fully developed at that age, they were really painful, lasted 2 weeks and very heavy, I was anemic at one point. Do you think it could be hormone imbalance I am suffering from?
Avatar f tn t involve hormones (such as condoms and foam or an IUD), to let your body go back to its normal hormone cycles. Do this for two or three months and see if your cycles regulate, and how you feel. Keep a journal, it will help you see patterns. Then see how you're doing with the symptoms you list.
Avatar f tn Is it ok to have sex when you got out off a hospital for hormone imbalance about 8 day and they put you on birth control or do you wait
Avatar f tn In my opinion you should consult a gynecologist and start with hormone replacemenr therapy.You can also take Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators like Femarelle which derived from a botanical source (Phytoserms) or phytoestrogens which have an estrogenic effect on the body and therefore create a moderated estrogenic effect. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar f tn Hi im 18 can my GP offer a hormone test as i feel i have a hormone balance or is this something you have to buy like a kit (i also have an under active thyroid)
Avatar f tn After that I began to feel ill, I also experienced severe weight loss (possibly through the anxiety), I began getting mild hot flushes and dizziness, the dizziness was rather like vertigo and I could not hold my baby, my husband had to look after him most of the time. I resulted in having a constantly elevated hr and high bp, I experienced buzzing sensations, shivers up and down my spine, shivers and cold sensations running down my legs. I was put on beta blockers.
Avatar n tn If you have a hormone imbalance, can it make your birth control less effective? I haven't been able to find much info on this but I suspect I have a hormonal imbalance due to the pill so I was wondering if that could mean the pill would be less effective against pregnancy.
1828162 tn?1317748092 Another thing, I started my menstrual cycle on September 19th, and it is still going. I went to the ER, where they did nothing, and then I went to my gyno and she prescribed me some birth control to even out my hormone levels. I took the dang pill, after having a HUGE anxiety attack about it because I am deathly afraid of any medication. The fear mostly stems from my fear of getting sick or feeling sick(er). That was nearly two hours ago, and no side effects yet...
Avatar n tn I recently got my period in October 2016 and I've been 20 days late, is this normal? I am not pregnant, I haven't gain or Loss major weight, and not much stress!

This is the cause of your Diabetes insipidus. Did your endocrinologist advise anything for the hormonal imbalance?
5536886 tn?1455827346 If youve had any recent weight loss that can do too. Activity level. More and less both can dely your period. Thyroid issues and PCOS. PCOS is just a hormone imbalance that can cause you to not ovulate, therefore skipping a period. The last 2 have other syptoms involved as well...so if its only a laye period and nothing else...then its more likely stress, activity or weight chamge related.
