5121963 tn?1363905257 I have been suffering with severe endometriosis since I was 16 years old. It's been 6 or more years and I am still going through the same stuff. I am on progesterone (for almost a year) and it's stopping the menstrual cycle and stopping more endo from growing, which is what we want, but it's also causing so many horrible side effects! Like hair loss; weight gain; depression; hot flashes; etc. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
1019152 tn?1336074292 Just wondering if anybody has taken syeda for birth control,and if you experienced any unwanted side effects.Nausea,weight loss/gain?My daughter is now taking this,and wanted to know about any side effects that anybody has experienced .
Avatar f tn what is the side affect of polycystic ovaries after treatment? weight gain possible after treatment?
Avatar f tn I've always had good luck with Yaz and Yasmin. Yaz has fewer side effects and most people can tolerate it and it works. However- everyone's body is different, and until they get the hormone balance right, you could have spotting, etc. I can say, that most likely- there is a pill out there that you could tolerate. Good luck.
1447404 tn?1284604228 Birth control can sometimes cause weight gain...but not every woman is the same. I never had weight gain with Yasmin. Sleepiness is not a side affect of metformin. And also, not every woman who has PCOS has diabetes. As far has the birth control, it did lighten my period and made it shorter as well. I never had breakthrough bleeding with it. My body reacts to medications very well...I've never had any bad side affects from anything I took.
730826 tn?1317943334 Im not vomiting any more but still am nausious. Its been a month since then. Can the side effects last this long or is there another reason for the nausea?
Avatar f tn Before this I was on the depo shot. But it was causing me to gain weight. So my doctor switched me. And so i dont know the side effects very well for this pill. But i did hear that this pill was supposed to "regulate" your period. Thats why Im asking(: Any answers are very much appreciated!
Avatar f tn Breast tenderness; bleeding or spotting between menstrual periods; nausea; stomach cramps or bloating; vomiting; weight gain i have also heard that pco's may cause spotting so i guess i could be a sing of the yasmin, the pco's or pregnancy. just to be sure you should do a pregnancy test and if you are pregnant or not you should visit your DR.
Avatar f tn I have had a weight problem all my life, and had gastric bypass in 2005 and lost over 130 pounds, so have not noticed weight as an issue for me, because I ahve other issues weight-wise and it would be hard to know if Yasmin was affecting my weight. I know when I have a period I can gain up to 10 pounds of water weight when that happens. My doc says there is no discernible reason for me to stop taking them way up until and into menopause.
Avatar f tn I am now day 14 on the pills and been taking it very regularly at around the same time everyday. I am constantly feeling tender nipples, bloating, slight weight gain and now mild cramps in lower belly right side. I assume its due to ovulation prevention from the pills?
1246883 tn?1285547973 Hi, welcome to the forum, seroquel is known to be associated with weight gain. There is significant weight gain is seen, in such cases usually other anti psychotics are prescribed. The weight gaining effect of this drug will not persist after discontinuation. Any associated condition should be looked for. If there is a change in voice (Voice becomes dusky), weight gain, intolerance to cold etc. You need to get your T3, t4 and TSH level checked as it may be in initial phase.
1313343 tn?1274833215 Aren't such side-effects as abdominal cramps have been reported for Yasmin? As I have found them in the drugs description.
534649 tn?1213315454 I take Yasmin, haven't gained anything since starting it last year. It works well with me.
869854 tn?1239978206 Mood swings, irritability, low sex drive, trouble sleeping, weight gain, confusion, hard to focus etc etc. I feel like I have all the syptoms of peri-menopause but my she claims there is no way to accurately check my hormones as they change daily and hourly. I feel hopeless so she mentioned that studies have shown the pill and also anxiety and depression meds can help the hormonal changes and regulate my moods and newly changing menstural cycle.
484167 tn?1210001396 She has had breast tenderness, very moody, break through bleeding, low sex drive. I undrstand these are all side effects of that pill. You can e-mail me at rocky1977_98***@**** to chat more. Would love to compare notes. Did you have breakthrough bleeding?
Avatar f tn I just need suggestions for birth control pills that are good for people who are extremely sensitive to hormones. I've had the Mirena IUD, which didn't cause me to gain weight, but caused my skin to look awful and other issues. I know every person reacts differently to birth controls, but I'm really starting to feel like there is nothing out there for me. I just don't want to gain weight or get acne.
Avatar f tn This is because birth control hormones are the hormone therapy that is least likely to cause bad side effects. For this reason, they can be used for years, while other hormone therapies can only be used for several months to two years. Birth control pills can also be used to stop or further slow endometriosis growths after endometriosis surgery. Like all hormone therapies and surgery, birth control hormones do not cure endometriosis.
1187071 tn?1279369698 It also makes me tired which I can handle that one but not the weight gain, I have had problems with my back in the past and when I put on weight my back hurts. I have nerve pain in my face and just pain in my face, what would be the other options I can talk to the dr about today? Would another pill from that line of pills be the same? I am going to talk to him about treatment of the other pain in my face if he don't want to then send me to a pain specialist that can treat all the pain.
704655 tn?1228685706 ll be able to see the fuzziness of the hair around your face. If the PCOS has made you gain weight already, a low carb diet can help you lose weight and control the other symptoms that come with PCOS. It's hard, but it helps. Good luck.
Avatar f tn had 2 injections...came off it because of weight gain...........have not seen mine since two months now.............saw my doc......put me on yasmin....
682098 tn?1236908245 Hi. I had endometriosis on both ovaries and tumor on my right ovary and 10 cm chocolate cyst. I had lap done (at the age of 19) and my right ovary was removed. Since than I was taking Yasmin pills (they are ok, because there aren't any unpleasent and serious side effects). But, because I have problems on my left ovary, too I had to do another lap, but I didn't want to, so I went to a puncture (they sucked the cysts and the blood).
Avatar f tn I didn't have any side effects except pregnancy, lol but some people may have them although not sure about the specific ones you asked about.
