Drospirenone for pcos
Common Questions and Answers about Drospirenone for pcos
yaz
I have PCOS and have been on Yasmin BCP for like 6 years to control my PCOS symptoms. The reproductive endocrinologist told me Yasmin is the gold standard for PCOS patients because the drospirenone works best in mitigating the symptoms of high testosterone like acne and hair growth.
Well my gyn nurse practitioner called and I guess there is new evidence out that Yasmin is causing causes more blood clots than other BCPs, and this is a risk that increases as you get older.
I've been taken the Drospirenone for about two years, and before I had the HIV test, I also had taken some skin disease medicine, will these medicine influence the test?
Many oral contraceptives contain chemical compounds that are designed to simulate the effects of natural hormones in the body. By acting on the endocrine system, these compounds can drastically decrease a woman's chance of getting pregnant. Drospirenone is one example of these types of synthetic hormones. While Drospirenone is effective as a means of birth control, it has also been found to increase a woman's risk of blood clots, stroke, and associated cardiovascular problems.
no pain, no premenstrual symptoms and 3 days max of very light bleeding (which considering I have PCOS has been a blessing). I take Yasminelle, which is a combined pill of drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol.
However, this month I had some brown discharge on the last day I took my pill (like 3 hours after I took my last pill, which I took a bit late, but maybe like 2 hours later than I usually do) and I had some cramping on day 24th, but nothing major.

Please do not experiment with birth control.
The chances of pregnancy from this event remain extremely low, for all of the reasons I mentioned in my first post. There is not a lot I can add to that, nor can anyone give you hard numbers.
I just recently had a baby on Sept 5, I have a prescription for birth control but I am not sure when to start taking them. I think the nurse at the hospital told me to start taking them on the third Sunday after the baby, but I am not sure. Can you help me?

Greetings SFX,
Hysterectomy is not standard treatment for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a disorder that stems from the ovaries. Removing your uterus will not cure PCOS. First line treatment for PCOS often includes combined hormone therapy a.k.a "birth control pills" , weight loss, evaluation for endocrine disorders such as diabetes and in the event of hirsutism (male hair pattern) spironolactone. Removal of the ovaries in the reproductive age women is associated.
isotretinoin also known as Accutane, can be prescribed by a doctor, or contraceptive pills with cyproterone for females with virilization or drospirenone.

Women who are 35+ have these risks increased, but in reality at any age you can have a baby that has birth defects. Just because you have PCOS does not mean your baby will have any birth defects. How long have you been trying for a baby? I'm 23 and haven't even started yet and I too have PCOS. I know when we do start trying it may take some time, and I'm willing to wait until I'm 30 or even old to have my first baby. Are you taking any meds to help with getting pregnant?

Dont let doctors tell you that you are too young for treatment its never too early to begin treatment for pcos if it is left untreated symptoms could worsen drastically. I dont recommend buying stuff online and creating your own dosage, you dont know how your body will react to clomiphene you could over stimulate your ovulation or harm yourself, consult a different doctor, one who is willing to assist you in your conception.
Hi love,
I'm 20 yrs old and have had pcos for 7 years!
The pill has helped me and makes me feel better because not having a regular cycle increases the risks of get cancer of the uterus!
I never used to get my period! And now if I missed one I have to go to the doctors and everything cause apparently its a high risk! I'm on Yasmin, which it good for the hair and acne I'm pretty sure as well!
As far as what diets, I have these really good books about special diet for pcos!
t have cysts on the ovaries, then they think you have no problem. PCOS is different for everybody. Some have just the hormonal issues, some just have the cysts, and some have both. I, when I learned i had it...I have just the hormonal issue, although I suspect a cyst now due to missing my period for June. Please see your doctor so you can start treatment asap.
Hi there. I am about to start metformin for my PCOS next week at the start of my new cycle. Will this help me to ovulate and help improve my chances of conceiving? We are trying for baby number two, this will be our ninth month. I was put on clomid 50mg to help us conceive our first baby two years ago. My transvaginal sonogram showed i have PCOS on my left ovary, but my right ovary was clear. I also have a tilted uterus. Would this hinder our chances of conceiving?
I took Prozac for a couple years, I did gain weight and honestly they made me feel like a total zombie. I had no emotion no matter what environment I was in. It works for some people but if its not working for you, you can try something else, but talk to your doctor about it. There are tons of anti depressants out there.
