Avatar f tn Three months ago I was switched by my OBGYN to the oral contraceptive pill Loestrin ( a combination of norethindrone acetate and ethinyl estradiol). I asked my doctor to switch me from my old 'tried & true" BC pill Azurette (Ethinyl estradiol and desogestrel) because of my suspicion that it, Azurette might be making my Chronic Migraine Headache condition worse.
Avatar n tn Hi, I’ve recently gotten on a birth control pill called “ Norethindrone Acetate and Ethinyl Estradiol 1mg/0.02 mg” What I’ve recently discovered is after taking the three weeks of pills I’m supposed to take a week off of the pills and then start the new pack. Needless to say, I was unaware that I was supposed to be taking this week off between packs. I’ve been taking this birth control for almost 4 months without these week breaks between packs. Is this something I should worry about?
Avatar n tn I'm currently on birth control pills (Ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) and i'm overweight so i'm planning on taking Hydroxycut Hardcore Next Gen. Will Hydroxycut affect the effectiveness of my bcp?

1202943 tn?1347840652 I found this info. Also, recall that a good level for women is reported to be 70-80. "The recommended way of taking iron to build up levels as fast as possible is to build up slowly over a week or two to let your digestion get used to the added iron and take the iron twice a day. You are aiming to ramp up to 150mg to 200mg of elemental iron a day which is 8 of these capsules a day.
Avatar f tn My side effect of taking the other remedy was weight gain. I gained 9 kg and now my weight is stuck at one point and is not decreasing. Does anyone have a similar problem?
Avatar f tn In addition to the info from flyingfool, you need to supplement with iron to raise your ferritin up to 70 minimum. Some good iron supplements are ferrous bisglycinate, ferrous fumarate, ferrous sulfate, and ferrous glutamate. I expect that you will need to start on about 25 mg and work up to about 75 mg to adequately raise your ferritin level.
Avatar m tn //www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-21091-656/drospirenone-ethinyl-estradiol-oral/ethinyl-estradiol-drospirenone-24-4-oral/details 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.
Avatar f tn So you should supplement with iron as necessary. Some good forms of iron are ferrous fumarate, ferrous biglycinate, ferrous sulfate, and ferrous glutamate. I take ferrous fumarate in gel cap. Not difficult to swallow with water. I would suggest that you start taking one of these at about 25 mg per day and then increase every couple of weeks up to 50 and 75 mg. Along with the iron you should take some Vitamin C to prevent any possible constipation from the iron.
Avatar n tn I'm on CD 88. Took Provera and did not have bleeding or spotting within 10 days after. Did blood work and it showed FSH: 6, LH: 1, TSH: 2.54. I did temping and OPKs and I'm pretty sure I did not ovulate. Before that I was on BCP (0.035 ethinyl estradiol & 0.25 norgestimate) and had very regular periods. What next? Clomid to stimulate ovulation? Clomid followed by estrogen? BCP to reset the cycle?

Avatar f tn I found out today I have iron deficit anemia and have been put on 210mg of ferrous fumarate that I have to take 3 times a day. Has anyone else been on them? How did you find it?
922048 tn?1387942584 I found a tiny little mention on Wikipedia that women with POF were able to have their high FSH suppressed by treatment w/ethinyl estradiol and then were successfully stimulated with gonadatropins and ended up having LIVE BIRTHS! So I found the reference to the article and pulled it up from PubMed. (the NIH website with articles published in major med journals) Not only did I find the original article referenced on Wikipedia, I found MANY others!
Avatar f tn I'm on iron liquid and I start tomorrow with that I'm about 34 weeks
Avatar f tn Hello, I have been on treatment for PCOS for a year and a half now with Drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol birth control pills. My OB/GYN asked for a blood test in order to see how my hormones are doing. While I am content that my testosterone levels are within normal range (it was very high at the moment of diagnosis and I was suffering from many uncomfortable effects) my prolactin levels are 38.25. I understand that this is high but, is it very high? should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn ve been on 100 mg ferrous fumarate and my headaches are almost completely gone but i still get really bad nausea. i don't know what to do, i feel nauseous before and after i eat and after eating despite being hungry its causing me a lot of anxiety because i can't concentrate with my life.
Avatar f tn Drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol) and my OB/GYN wants to see how my hormones are doing. The hormones he wants to check are prolactin, cortisol and testosterone and my GP has also ordered estradiol as she suspects that checking cortison will not be possible (it has to be done in a hospital and this is unavailable atm due to COVID-19). I will have a blood test next Tuesday, coincidentally during my placebo week (and probably my first day of period).
Avatar f tn The best supplements for ferritin (iron) are ferrous fumarate, ferrous biglycinate, ferrous sulfate, and ferrous glutamate. If you are going to be tested for ferritin next week, I would not start on a iron supplement before blood draw. Best to stay off iron supplements for 4-5 days in order to prevent a false high test result.
