Avatar n tn I had some really odd symptoms with Yasmin and begged my dr to take me off of it, since then I was on Apri, which is just generic desogen. Initally did much better on this one so I'm not sure how yaz/yasmin works but I can say my withdrawal bleed "period" got way longer on it- I used to only bleed for 4 days on Aleese, then gradually this increased and due to weight gain and water retention switched to Yasmin...
475555 tn?1469304339 t format properly here, my apologies.) Hi! friends, Medhelpers, and fellow sufferers from hepatitis and the medical profession. In a previous thread, concerned with the reliability of fibrosis tests like biopsy, Fibroscan, Fibrotest, FibroTC, etc., I mentioned a simple fibrosis index I recently discovered called the AST-to-Platelet Ratio Index, or APRI, that can be calculated from blood tests, and which has been shown to have a high level of reliability.
Avatar f tn What type of pill are you on? When I was taking a generic version of Ortho Tri Cyclen, I was a Sunday start-so started my active pills on Sunday after my period. Active pills went on for 21 days, with the last one being on a Saturday. I nearly always started my period on the Wendesday following my last active pill (though a could of times I started Tuesday instead)...so my period began on the 3rd or 4th day of my non-active pills.
Avatar f tn 0.5 and 1.5. That is, an APRI score of less than 0.5 means no or very slight fibrosis, and an APRI score of more than 1.5 means cirrhosis. The intermediate scores approximate the intermediate fibrosis stages. I have now calculated my APRI score for the seven blood tests done between 2006 and now, and the graph of the scores shows a steady progression from early to later stage fibrosis, which is apparently what has happened. That is, I'm a fast progressor (65 years old, geno 1b, etc.).
Avatar n tn This is my first month ever being on birth control and i'm on the 28-day pack pills called Apri. i started taking the last week the "reminder pills" 3 days ago and the way i understood it is that i'm supposed to get my period on the first day i took the reminder pills...could i be pregnant or is there something else wrong?
Avatar n tn I have one sex partner. Please help! I am also on birth control Apri and have been having extreme acne under my jawline on my neck (I read this is hormonal). Please give me your input on what you think is wrong.
Avatar f tn OK. So I was on Apri for a year when I was with my bf. My last period on Apri was July 18, 2008. After that period, I took about 4 of the pills before I decided to go off the pill for a few months, since my bf and I broke up months ago and I don't like taking medicine/hormones I don't need. Naturally, my period started again a few days after I stopped taking the pill, so maybe the beginning of August. Last week, I made a really stupid, stupid mistake and slept with my ex w/o protection.
7510956 tn?1411671417 Hi and welcome. Feeling healthy and approaching cirrhosis are not exclusive. Many people who have complete cirrhosis which is more advanced than your liver disease feel fine. It is only when cirrhosis becomes advanced that serious complications appear. Having fluid retention (ascites and edema), enlarged collateral veins (varices), etc. Others may have more recent data on Fibrosure. This is what I found...

Avatar f tn I never know on March 26th or Apri 1st.
Avatar f tn Hi, I was on the pill Apri for a little over a yr. Had a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for endo, a polyp and a cyst. After that I wanted to try for a baby. Anyways, I stopped my birth control the same day I had my surgery and I've never had a problem. I'm not sure about everyone but that was what happened to me. Everything was fine. I had surgery on June 25th, 2010 and so it's been almost 3 weeks. I hope this helps. Good luck, take care!
Avatar m tn s had problems with holding her urine. At times it will just come out. She was put on a med. from the Vet. Does anyone know of a generic brand or natural one that will do the same. I can't keep going back paying office visits everytime she needs a new med.
1134609 tn?1269272200 I have never had any luck when I have been placed on the generic brands of medications. Celexa especially; I was on it for 10 years, tried the generic several times and paid for it. 3. I have also been on Neurontin for the past 10 years. In a past post, I wondered if they decrease in dosage is what was causing me so many problems. However, I am back on the brand name of the medication and there's a HUGE difference between the two.

Avatar n tn I'm 25 yrs old, and was on the Apri bcp for exactly "A WEEK," when I notice that my scalp felt like it was burning and it was itching badly. I went to check my head if it was lice or so, and found out that I had a dime size bald spot. I immediately stopped taking the bcp. It's been exactly one month now that I've been bcp-free and still notice that I am shedding tremendously, hair thinning, and found 3 more bald spots.
1055902 tn?1286305198 t know why and does not want to make any assumption. He put me on a birth control pill called Apri to bring on a period and hopefully clear out the tissues. If Apri does not help, then he consider doing D & C. Why not do a D & C instead of taking the pills? I'm afraid, I may never get pregnant from taking the pills. Any thoughts on this? I can't stop crying!
