Avatar m tn I was wondering if switching birth control pills could have helped maximize the anxiety. I switched from yaz to ocella and have only been on ocella for a few months and the anxiety started like a month ago.
Avatar f tn I am trully deceptioned. I am thinking on not taking Lybrel anymore, it's not reaching its purpose. I am miserable. The worse part of it is my doctor! When I told her about lybrel she gave me a perplexed look. Mind you, she's a gynecologist! I had to bring her a print out, and this was on my second appointment. In the beginning she prescribed ocella, I stoped because it was making me bleed. She told me that I shouldn't had stoped because it was my body adapting to the pill.
Avatar f tn I am currently on Ocella (generic for Yasmin), I have been on it for almost a month, I start the inactive pills tomorrow night. Before I took Ocella, I was taking Yaz(and I switched immediatly). My last period lasted for 3-4 days. I should start my period on March 11th. Yesterday I had light pinkish/red blood when I wiped and some cramping and now I am having light brown discharge that is odorless. I have not missed any pills, and I do have unprotected sex.
Avatar f tn Well Ocella is the generic for Yasmin. I was taking Yasmin for 2 years, when last month I was given Ocella. Well I wasn;t too thrilled with it, as I had cramps for 5 days plus I started my period 1 day late. They say generic is always the same, but for me I felt a difference. It could be from the pill. Your body needs to adjust being on it. Side affects should lessen by the third month.
Avatar f tn I went on the pill for the same reason when I was 16. It didn't really make a difference with my acne, but it helped to regulate my periods and made them lighter, and more managable. But my acne got better as I got older. I also used acne cream from my pharmacist, if you go in and ask them, they will normally give you one from behind the counter, they are stronger than the ones you can pick up yourself, but not as strong as if they doctor was to prescribe it for you. Hopefully this helps!
Avatar f tn Actually there are lawsuits going on right now, where people have died on this particular birth control pill, from a variety of problems, including seizures. Apparently blood clots are the biggest problem, but I have indeed read about this seizure thing, too. There is also something about making too much calcium in the blood on that BC pill, too.
Avatar f tn My boyfriend and I are sexually active, we've been together for about 2 years. I am on birth control (Ocella) but, he always pulls out before ejaculating. He's never "busted" inside of me. I haven't missed a period, but do you think I'm at all possible of being pregnant? HELP PLEASE! Thanks!
Avatar f tn I get the bumps quite often. Instead of being filled with pus, like most regular acne, mine are filled with blood. Squeezing or popping them is much more painful than popping a pimple and only makes them worse and more prone to scarring. I've found a product called Prosacea that works quite well to keep the condition from flaring, as long as I use it daily. If I skip a few days, I get the painful bumps back again.
Avatar n tn How are you? Acne is a skin condition that affects many children. In some cases, people with mild acne do not take any medications and usually goes in time without scarring. If there is no improvement, see your dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment of acne. Proper diet, cleansing of the face and avoidance in touching the face can help with this condition from progressing.

Avatar n tn Hi everyone,I am 6 weeks pregnant with my first and I am getting the worst Acne which is driving me crazy. Not only does it look terrible but it hurts alot. Can anyone recommend some remedies to help my situation?
Avatar n tn Have you spoken to your daughter about starting her on birth control? I know it wont stop the fainting, nausea and cold sweats but it should help with the heavy periods, hair and acne. Some women are just born with more testosterone thus causing darker thicker hair. Birth control has different side effects for each woman however it cleared up my face, lightened and regulated my periods, helped me loose weight and made me generally happier. Try speaking to your doctor about this.
Avatar n tn Earlier in May I missed three days of my pills and started to bleed. So I stopped taking it because I was going into my placebo week. I had my period then stopped for a day or two then started spotting that's never happen to me. I got my new pack and started taking them and now I feel nauseous as ever and I'm in my second week going to my third week...
Avatar f tn So, I had to fill out a questionaire with a million questions before I see an RE at the end of the month. One of the questions was about acne, and whether I have it or not. What does having acne mean? (I've heard getting acne can be a sign of something, I just can't remember what) Lately, I've been having so many breakouts, and today noticed I had some back acne. Gross! I never had acne before.
Avatar n tn I am having problems with adderall and acne too. I have to take it a few days......then I break out bad, then I stop it. It's the worst. Started taking Vyvanse and it is the same thing. Wish I could stop the severe acne because the medication is good and helps.
Avatar f tn First month or so I had heatburn , vomitted, ..I never get sick, so I had no clue what to do with heatburn, ..finallhy ended up with pepacid and gas x 6. The periods are SO painful that I have a jar of ibuprofen in my office , car and home..I have to take morning afternoon and night during my period. I am currently back to a 7 day period but still HEAVY flows than usual for me 7. The nail in coffin was this past month...scaitic nerve issues. I scream with pain!!.
Avatar f tn It's just a pregnancy thing. You might be able to try Witch Hazel if it is safe during pregnancy. I always found cocoa butter to help me. Yes, moisturizing can help acne!!! I'll find you some proof if you don't believe me, lol!
Avatar m tn Hi. I'm 28 years old and have had bad acne since the age of 14. In the back of my head since I was 14 I always thought I was born with Herpes. All my derm doctors over the years have laughed at me and said I don't have Herpes. I get cystic acne on my neck, behind my ears and now I have one on the front of my leg. Also I had one on my lower belly a year ago, yet the red mark from it is still there.
10743983 tn?1440210210 Have acne on face, shoulders and chest, and feel as if it won't just heal up? I swear! I am due next Saturday, and I'm pretty positive the acne I've had since the beginning still hasn't cleared up and has only gotten worse? Does anyone else feel this way? It's such a pain in the a.s.s so tired of looking like this! My chin is absolutely horrific... Oy.
Avatar f tn I have been on Ocella for the past 10 months. I'm finding that the past few months I am consistently anxious and depressed. I am concerned that it could be the birth control that I am on. I would like to know if there are any b.c. pills that limit this side effect. I also find that my libido is less strong. All of these symptoms are affecting my relationship. Any suggestions?
Avatar f tn At the end of September I was switched from Syeda to Ocella. I was about two weeks late picking up my prescription. On October 5th I was sexually active and it was during the first week of my pill pack. I ended up starting my withdraw bleed during the third week of my active pills. It was light and spotty, only when I wiped. It lasted 10 days. About three days into the spotting I got sore breasts, which I have never gotten before.
Avatar m tn The ketoconazole burned my skin and didnt help, and the zinc soap does not help much either. I came back to her and she confirmed it is adult acne and some kind of dermatitis which cannot be cured. Dermatologist told me to try vegetarian diet and drink a lot of water, cut out carbs, sugar, diary. But this did not help. She tell me isotretinoin will most likely help my skin but the side effects are too dangerous so she is refusing to prescribe.
Avatar f tn After i have my baby boy i plan on getting on birth control for a couple years but i don't know which one would be best. I been doing research but it doesn't really help me choose, Any suggestions?
