Avatar f tn Hi- I am a 17 year old girl and I have been on birth control pills for a little over a year and a half now. I was originally prescribed Ortho-Tricyclen Lo but was switched to Kariva in May of this year because it was said to be the "less expensive generic brand" of Tricyclen Lo. I always felt a little more irritable and noticed my skin got a little more sensitive when I originally started taking the pill, but nothing too bad.
Avatar f tn I was orginally on Depo-Provera for 1 1/2 years (never had a period), switched to Seasonale (major nausea), then switched to Tri-Sprintec (my chest got huge on this pill), and then to Kariva (was great!). I was on Kariva for 10 months. I never took the placebo week, so I never had a 'period'. However, if and when I missed a pill or took it a little late, I always had spotting for a day or two.
Avatar f tn Last Wednesday I got my period, and I began taking Kariva Birth Control. On friday, My boyfriend and I decided to have sex, which was dumb, but we used a condom with spermicide on it and in it. After a little bit, the condom popped and he pulled out immediately without ejaculating at all. Then we were finished. I know that people say that girls can get pregnant on their periods, however, i was only on the 3rd day of my cycle and i highly doubt that i could have ovulated so early...
408795 tn?1324935675 Haven't read it completely yet but it's information and just another shout out that if you deal with depression or other related issues, take your time when it comes to tx. Maybe the fda has noticed that some people who deal with depression have a more pronounced tx outcome than previously thought. Like I said, I not did read it all yet, just the quick once over. Yep, tx and 6 month follow-up period, bigger warning than before, I think. Anyone?
136849 tn?1327321510 Hi Everyone, haven't posted in here in a while, but had alittle information I wanted to share and get passed around, in a national magazine, I came across an full page advertisement that says : Kelly Ripa & Molly Sims are Fighting for a Cure. LIVE Super Saturday on QVC on 7/26, starting at 2pm they will be selling all kinds of stuff at fantastic prices, but best of all, all NET Proceeds benefit the OVARIAN CANCER RESEARCH FUND.
Avatar m tn I am on Kariva birth control. I missed 2 or 3 pills the week that i had sex. We used protection everytime except penetration once for like 30 but he did not ejaculate. I took plan b (the one pill version) between th 48 and 72 hour mark. It has been 2 weeks since and my period has been a couple days late and very very light (dark brown). I know that the plan b causes disruptions in menstrating and so does missing pills but id like to lnow if im just overly paranoid.
Avatar n tn DKA happens when the blood sugars are high and the body by product is ketones. We have found that the be4stway to avoid this is by having our daughter check her blood 6-8 times a day. When her blood sugar is over 225 we have her check for ketone thru her urine. If she has ketones we give her extra no carb fluids and contact per endocrinologist on how to adjust her insulin dosage.
1063764 tn?1272821064 I am also on the birth control pill Kariva. I was told that they would not interfere with each other, however something is not right and I was just wondering if anyone out there could help me out. I can't get back to the endocrinologist for another 4 months for my next test, so I did not want to stop the medication. Does anyone know how long it stays in your body...I was considering not taking it for a few weeks just to see if this cleared up.
Avatar f tn i know all birth controls are different, but they have a lot of similar side effects. i was on yasmin, seasonique, kariva, and now sprintec. the first two that i mentioned: i had my period for about a month. sometimes it just takes a while for your body to adjust. for me it eventually regulated.
11728532 tn?1451774466 Hi there, I'm an 18 y/o female and I have taken birth control ( Kariva -- to be specific) since I was 15 to treat PCOS. About a month ago, I had intercourse and afterwards I bled heavily and had cramps for a week. I should not have gotten my period for another two weeks according to my pills. When I took the pills that started my period, It was very light and ended two days early. We used a condom but I'm scared.
Avatar m tn m a 21 year old who just stopped the pill after 5 years of being on it consistently. In October I was switched from Azzurette to Kariva, just a generic brand switch. I hated it and decided to go natural and stop the pill all-together around November 13. I got my "withdrawal period" right after.
393685 tn?1425812522 Funny I read the same article written by a different doctor promoting similar product. I wonder if it is jsut a way to get us to buy the product? I looked up adrenal fatigue and that same article came up in a different listing promoting the same thing! Makes me wonder...might be genuine...but then again...the investigator in me has me wondering.
Avatar f tn Im super pasty and it made me super sad that I had no color. But this product is AMAZING! no streaks.
Avatar m tn Get in the habit of reading ingredient labels. If you can’t pronounce or recognize something in the ingredients list, just avoid the product altogether. Stick to simple whole foods. The Paleo approach, the Raw Food diet, and Macrobiotic approaches to how we eat share similar eating habits which make up a healthy diet.
Avatar n tn This condition developed after he and his fiancee used a heated K-Y Jelly product. He has sought the advice of a board certified dermatologist who has suggested that a chemical in the product could very well have caused the loss of pigmentation. He has no vitiligo on any other part of his body. It has also been suggested to him that others have developed this condition after using this particular brand of product.
Avatar f tn orthotrycyclinn made me have two cycles a month but every pill they gave me did that instead of makeing my periouds lighter it made me have more and heavier ones, plus i lost a lot of weight on birth control i was on kariva, low loesestrin fe, abri, orthottycyclin, and two other ones all of them did the same thing they helped witht he cramps but i had more cycles than i was suppposed to.
Avatar n tn There is not much information at all on the product Natural Woman. You may want to check with the manufacturer for more information. Compounded natural progesterone is a progesterone that is compounded in a pharmacy. There are special compounding pharmacies that compound plant-derived, bioidentical hormones and a prescription is needed for these compounds.
Avatar f tn I checked and the levoxly is not a generic and I do not take any other drugs (except Kariva at night). I would not know why my hair is falling out or what to ask the doctor to check. I am so worried that I will be the only bald one in my family.
Avatar f tn I have purchased a water filter and the acne had gone away dramatically, but now i have severe blemishes on my face. At first i was using a product called Ambi and Crusaders soap and face cream that are skin bleaching creams. They both work well, but they lighten up my entire face rather than just evening my skin tone so now my face is visibly lighter than the rest of my body. I am looking into purchasing a product called Mederma and i wanted to see what you think about this product.
Avatar f tn Confidentiality laws prohibit FDA from disclosing information about a drug product that is not approved unless the manufacturer has already made that information public. In the case of Telaprevir, certain information was make public by the manufacturer, Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated. On November 23, 2010, Vertex announced that they had completed the submission of an NDA to FDA. In addition, they also announced they requested a six-month priority review.
Avatar n tn Hi Opalessence, Contacting the manufacturer should prove the quickest way to find the closest pharmacy that carries their product. Often they will go ther extra mile to help you so they can sell their product(s).
Avatar n tn Synvisc is the original product, made from the rooster's crown, Euflexxa is a generic made from synthetic derivative. If in doubt about anything, always ask a professional. That is the best source for medical advice.

Avatar n tn I am preparing to sue my doctor, and make a claim to the FDA, and a law suit to the drug company for product liabilty in my own case. For your wife, I too have arthritis in my spine, Thermacare stick on heat wraps do help quite a bit, and drug free, I also use Sport Cream, seems better than aspricream or myoflex cream. Best of everything to you.
Avatar f tn Anyways I used to do my makeup sitting on my bedroom floor (which is carpet) and I remember knocking one of my face makeup products over and it coming into contact with the carpet. I did wipe the bottle and the hole where the product comes out from with a wet wipe. I want to know is, how likely is it that I could give myself facial warts by using the makeup product that came into contact with the floor? And is carpet a suitable environment for the warts virus to live anyway?
